Question 861290: I’ve been stuck on this for ever! Can someone explain this to me?
Q: A club with 29 members is voting on a proposal. A group of 4 has decided to vote in favor of the proposal while each of the rest of the members vote independently with a chance of 41% in favor of the proposal. What are the chances that the proposal will get the majority vote?

majority would be 15 in favor
we already have 4 in favor
so we need 11 out of 25 to vote in favor
.41*25=10.25
not quite 11
