A multiple-choice test consists of 10 questions. Each question has answer choices of a, b, c, and d, and only one of the choices is correct. If a student randomly quesses on each question, what is the probability that she gets at most 2 of them correct? Carry your intermediate computations to at least four dedmal places, and round your answer to two decimal places. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
