8. The highest annual discharges of a river were statistically analysed for a periods of 45 years. The fourth largest flood was 1,300 m³/s. Determine: a) the period in which the flood of 1,300 m³/s may reoccur once; b) the percentage chance that this flood may occur in any one year; c) the percentage chance that this flood may not occur in the next 25 years; d) the percentage chance that this flood may occur once or more in the next 25 years; e) the percentage chance that a 40-yr flood may occur once in 40 years, f) the percentage chance that a 40-yr flood may occur one or more times in 40 years.
