Question

A person in a casino decides to play 3 games of blackjack. Let W denote a win and L denote a loss. Define the event A as “the person wins at least one game of blackjack”. What are the possible outcomes for this event?

• {W, LW, LLW}
• {W, WW, WWW}
• {WWW, WWL, WLW, WLL, LWW, LWL, LLW, LLL}
• {WWW, WWL, WLW, WLL, LWW, LWL, LLW}
• {WWL, LWL, LLW}

Could someone please explain the logic of finding the right answer to these type of questions? I'm aware that the correct answer is {WWW, WWL, WLW, WLL, LWW, LWL, LLW}, but i'm not understanding how it's the correct choice out of all the options listed above.

Thank you so much!
