Question

A box holds 240 eggs. The probability that an egg is brown is 0.05. How do you find the probability that there are 15 brown eggs in the box?

Answer 1

Improbable.

Explanation:

0.05 = (the count of brown eggs in the box)`/`(the total number of egg in the box) = (the count of brown eggs in the box)`/`240.

The box has 0.05 X 240 = 12 brown eggs only. The probability of finding more than 12 brown eggs is 0.
