8.5 is the nearest one
square root of 72 is about 8.48
rounding to the nearest tenth gives you 8.5

80% I am thinking is correct
Answer:
The probability of 1 or less children from that group to learn how to swim before 6 years of age is 0.072
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case we need to compute the probability of none of these 12 children learns to swim before 6 years of age. This is given by:
p(0) = (1 - 0.312)^(12) = 0.688^(12) = 0.01124
We now need to calculate the probability that one child learns to swim before 6 years of age.
p(1) = 12*0.312*(1 - 0.312)^(11) = 3.744*(0.688)^(11)
p(1) = 3.744*0.01634
p(1) = 0.0612
The probability of 1 or less children from that group to learn how to swim before 6 years of age is:
p = p(0) + p(1) = 0.01124 + 0.0612 = 0.07244
I believe it would be 12/18 so that would be 2/3 and 0.6 in decimal form
