what is the probability of receiving between 500 and 600 requests per hour?
----
Draw the uniform distribution.
base has width 2950
----
height must be 1/2950
-------------------------
Area over the interval 500 to 600 is 100*(1/2950) = 0.0339
=========================
That is the probability you want.
