Problem

A bank offers loan to its customers on different types of interest namely, fixed rate, floating rate and variable rate. From the past data with the bank, it is known that a customer avails loan on fixed rate, floating rate or variable rate with probabilities 10%, 20% and 70% respectively. A customer after availing loan can pay the loan or default on loan repayment. The bank data suggests that the probability that a person defaults on loan after availing it at fixed rate, floating rate and variable rate is 5%, 3% and 1% respectively. ![Illustration showing a decreasing trend in interest rates, represented by stacks of coins getting progressively smaller. The text 'INTEREST RATES' is written diagonally across the stacks, and a percentage sign (%) is visible.](https://storage.googleapis.com/diraq-contents/homework-question-parsing/marker/20260107T161002Z/b20547a2514646b3baf4600a98d6e5d5/10c82dcc5f2c237961329dd29d65859c_img.jpg) Based on the above information, answer the following : a.
