Help with a multiple simultaneous probability problem.

I can't seem to wrap my head around how to calculate this, nor the reasoning behind it.

Say you have 3 10-sided dice. 2 dice have 8 "winning" faces and 2 "losing" faces. So an 80% chance of winning. The third dice has 5 "winning" and 5 "losing" sides, so a 50% chance of winning.

If you roll all three of these dice at the same time:

-What is the probability of at least 1 dice winning.

-What is the probability of at least 2 dice winning.

-What is the probability of all 3 winning.

From what I've seen I can calculate the probability of all 3 winning by doing:

0.8 x 0.8 x 0.5=0.32

A 32% chance of all 3 winning at the same time.

But what about the others, I can't seem to figure it out.

It's kinda wild that zombo.com still exists

zombo.com was launched in 1999. I remember in high school you'd see the new fancy web kiosk's the school put up just displaying it as a joke. and being locked out of the address bar so you couldn't change it. The fact that this url has been renewed, maintained, and updated with all the advancements web browsers have made in the last 24 years, just to have this useless site still exist amuses me to no end.
