Question 1107768: in a manufacturing process, it is estimated that only 2% of the bolts that are machined are declared defective, that is, that are either too large or too small. In a package of 50 bolts, what is the probability that there is at least one defective bolt? Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! What is the probability there are none? That is 0.98^50=0.3642
All else is probability of at least one. That is 0.6358.
