Answer:

B. 0.08

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must account for all possibilities. The sum of all posssiblities must sum up to 1.

1 - High Attendance/No Rain

0.9*0.8 = 0.72

2- High Attendance/ Rain

0.4*0.2 = 0.08

3 - Low Attendance/No Rain

0.1*0.8 = 0.08

4 - High Attendance/No Rain

0.6*0.2 = 0.12

Now we answer the question of rain and high attendance.

0.08/1 = 0.08
