Answer:

The answer is 18 percent, or 9/50.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first convert the chance of rain on Monday into a fraction.

60%=60/100=3/5.

We then convert the chance of rain on Tuesday into a fraction.

30%=30/100=3/10.

Because the two events are independent(i.e. If it rains on Tuesday doesn't depend on if it rains on Monday) we multiply them together to get the probability they both happen. That chance is:

3/5 * 3/10=(3*3)/(5*10)=9/50(fraction form)=18/100=18%(percent form)
