    0.089

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The probability of the candy chosen is yellow is:

    14% or 0.14

    The probability of the candy chosen not yellow is:

    100%-14% = 86% or 0.86

    The number of trials is four, three of them being non-yellow and 1 being yellow.

    The probability is the combination of four events and is calculated as:

    P = (0.86) ^3*0.14 ≈0.089

    So the answer is 0.089
