You can put this solution on YOUR website! A market researcher needs to interview people who drive to work. in the area where the study is undertaken, 75% of the people drive to work. If three people agree to be interviewed, what is the probability that at least one satisfies the requirement?
----
Binomial with n = 3 ; p = 0.75
--
P(at least one) = 1 - P(none)
P(at least one) = 1 - (0.25)^3 = 1 - 0.015625 = 0.9844
