Question 852323: A certain apathetic network shows episodes of "Charmed" randomly, without any concern for the proper order, multi-part episodes, or for when the episode last aired. They simply randomly pick one of the episode every day to show. 66 episodes of "Charmed" feature Prue, and 112 feature Paige.

Using the rounded answers above, find the probability that in 200 consecutive airings, we will have at least 64 Prue episodes.

Hi,

p(Prue) = 66/178

Using TI Calculator for a Binomial distribution: 

The syntax is 1 - binomcdf(n, p, largest x-value). 

m = 66/178, n = 200

P(x ≥  64) = 1 - binomcdf(200, 66/178, 63)
