A test is composed of six multiple choice questions where each question has 4 choices. If the answer choices for each question are equally likely, find the probability of answering 3 OR 4 questions correctly
-------------------
Binomial Problem with n = 6 and p = 1/4
---
P(3<= x <=4) = 6C3(1/4)^3(3/4)^4 + 6C4(1/4)^4(3/4)2
= 0.1648
