Two baseball teams are playing in the World Series. Team A is ahead 3 games to 1, so it will win the series if it wins at least one of the next 3 games. Assuming that the teams are evenly matched (so the probability that a particular team will win any game is 0.5), what is the probability that Team A will win the World Series?
