In a video game, each rocket has an 60% chance of hitting a target. Three rockets are now fired at a target. What is the probability that exactly two of the rockets will hit the target? Express your answer as a decimal to the nearest thousandth.
hit x hit x miss = .60 x .60 x .40 = .144
hit x miss x hit = .60 x .40 x .60 = .144
miss x hit x hit = .40 x .60 x .60 = .144
Adding these together: .432
