Solution

All three words - opportunity, occasion, and opening - can be used to replace the informal word 'chance' depending on the context.

  1. Opportunity: This is used when referring to a set of circumstances that makes it possible to do something. For example, "I had the opportunity to travel to Paris."

  2. Occasion: This is used when referring to a particular time or instance of an event. For example, "On one occasion, I had the chance to meet the president."

  3. Opening: This is used when referring to an available position or job. For example, "There is an opening in our company for a software engineer."

So, the suitable formal word to replace 'chance' would depend on the context in which it's being used.
