The probability of a person\'s being left-handed is .12. In the 1992 U.S. presidential election all three major candidates were left-handed. What\'s the probability of selecting three unrelated people who are all left-handed? Solution Unrelated people have independent left-handedness. Thus, P(all three left handed) = 0.12*0.12*0.12 = 0.001728 [answer].
