The probability of an event 'W' is 0.324. What is the probability that of three independent trials, the event W will occur twice?
Why is it not correct to simply say P(W) x P(W) x P(Wcomplement)?
Is this a matter of conditional probability?

Hint:
$$W\text{ exactly twice}=(W_1\cap W_2\cap W_3^{\complement})\cup(W_1\cap W_2^{\complement}\cap W_3)\cup(W_1^{\complement}\cap W_2\cap W_3)$$ so a union of $3$ mutually exclusive events.
