There is a quiz show that is composed of three rounds. A contestant solves Question 1 first and if she gets the right answer, then she will move on to next round to answer Question 2, and if she also answers correctly, then she will go to final round to answer Question 3. If she fails to answer correctly, then she is not allowed to go on to the next round. The probability that she knows the answer to Question 1 is 0.9, to Question 2 is 0.8 and to Question 3 is 0.7. What is the probability that she will win this quiz show?

(a) 0.504

(b) 0.56
