If we inspect paper by drawing 5 sheets (without replacement) from every batch of 1000, what is the probability of getting 5 clean sheets even though 2 % of the sheets contain spots?
---------------------
# of spotted in 1000 = 0.02*1000 = 20 ; # of clean = 980
-------
# of ways to draw 5 clean = 980C5
# of ways to draw 5 randomly = 1000C5 =
----
P(5 clean) = 980C5/1000C5 = 0.9037
