Question

Chayton read a report that said the probability that a randomly selected American is left-handed is 14\%14%14, percent. He was curious how many left-handed students to expect in a class of 202020 students. He simulated 252525 classes of 202020 students where each student selected had a 0.140.140, point, 14 probability of being left-handed. Chayton counted how many left-handed students were in each simulated class. Here are his results: Use his results to estimate the probability that there are 222 or fewer left-handed students in a class of 202020 students. Give your answer as either a fraction or a decimal. P(2\text{ or fewer left-handed})\approxP(2 or fewer left-handed)≈

Answer 1

Answer:

0.36 or 9/25

9 students of the 25 twenty-student classes were left handed. Answer can be written as a fraction 9/25 or a decimal, 0.36
