Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of getting the newspaper on his front porch = P(A) = 0.64

Probability of finding the newspaper on his  lawn = P(B) =? (We don't know, this is what we have to find.)

Total probability = 1

Formula, P(A) + P(B) = 1

Let's put all values in this formula,

              0.64 + P(B) = 1

              P(B) = 1 - 0.64

              P(B) = 0.36

Thus, the probablity that Mr. Johnson finds his newspaper on his lawn is 0.36 or 36%.
