Question 280057
There is a bank failure once every six days, on average. What is the probability of at least one bank failure in the next 30 days?
---------------------
General Rule:
P(at least one) = 1 - P(none)
----------------------------------
Your Problem:
P(at least one bank failure) = 1 - P(no bank failures)
= 1 - (5/6)^6
= 1 - 0.3349
= 0.6651
