Question 1078583: Please help me solve the following problem.
A survey indicates that 52% of men in Namibia consider reading as their favourite leisure-time activity. You randomly select five men and ask them if reading is their favourite leisure-time activity. Find the probability that more than three of them will say yes. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Want 4 and 5.
select 5
.52^4*.48^1*5 ways to have this happen=0.1755.
.52^5=0.0380
total is 0.2135
Check with probability 4 or 5 heads in 5 throws.
That is 5/32+1/32=3/16=0.188. This is consistent.
