In a major study by the statistics classes at Washington High School, city parking spaces were examined for compliance with the requirement to put money in the parking meters. Overall, the students found that 76% of metered parking places had meters that had not expired, and 24% had meters that were expired. If the traffic officer in charge of ticketing cars with expired meters checks meters at random, what is the probability he or she will find an expired meter before the 3rd one?
