Question 1184888: The lengths of a professor's classes has a continuous uniform distribution between 50.0 min and 52.0 min. If one such class is randomly selected, find the probability that the class length is between 50.9 and 51.7 min. Round the answer to 3 decimal places. Answer by greenestamps(13198) (Show Source):
Since the distribution is uniform, the probability is the ratio of the length of the prescribed range of times to the total length of the range of times.
