Question 255929: In a classroom size of 25, a student has to be either a K,S,N,L,M,U,V,I. What is the probability that I will have a classroom that has no K's?
hint:
The K,S,N,L,M,U,V,I are initials that represent learning styles from the multiple intelligences that Howard Gardner established.

I will assume that it is neither more nor less likely that a student has any 
one of those intelligences than any other (although I'm not so sure that's a 
realistic assumption!).

This is a binomial distribution.  There are 25 independent trials, where the
probability of one success (a student being a non-K) is . That works
out to be
