    Explanation:

    The computation of the expected return on investment is shown below:

    = (Expected return of the outcome 1 * Probability of the outcome 1) + (Expected return of the outcome 1 * Probability of the outcome 1) + (Expected return of the outcome 1 * Probability of the outcome 1)

    = (0.15 * 0.50) + (0.25 * 0.30) + (0.10 * 0.20)

    = 0.075 + 0.075 + 0.02

    = 0.17
