What is the probability of getting 1 right answer out of 2 questions if the favorable outcome is 40%?

[#1]
The odds of getting two favorable outcomes is .4*.4 or 16%
The odds of getting two unfavorable outcomes is .6*.6 or 36%




100% - (16% + 36%) = 48% chance of one unfavorable result and one favorable result.
