A car company orders windscreens from a supplier whose quality control procedures eliminate all damaged and distorted windscreens. However, from previous experience the car company knows that 0.6% of the windscreens it receives are too small to fit onto the cars it manufactures, whilst 1% are too large. What is the expected number of rejected windscreens in a batch of 300?
