 What if + (subject + verb)

Here you are asking a question about 'in the event of' or 'in the

what case would a particular thing happen.

the chances 'personally' that the topic will happen.

Here are some examples:

"What are the chances of you staying home today?"

"What are your chances of getting the job?"

"What are your chances of improving?"

"What are your chances of moving?"
