Default Probability of Rainfall?

So to summarize concisely (I apologize if my posts were a little wordy),
given the numbers:

The probability (P) of rain each day is 20 % = P = 40 %

and

The probability of rain at least one of the days is 50 % = P = 70 %

a range existing because it depends to what extent the events depend on
each other.
