The article “Integrating Risk Assessment and Life Cycle Assessment: A Case Study of Insulation” estimates that 5.6% of a certain population has asthma, and that an asthmatic has probability 0.027 of suffering an asthma attack on a given day. A person is chosen at random from this population. What is the probability that this person has an asthma attack on that day?
What will be an ideal response?
(0.056)(0.027) = 0.001512
