We know that the probability of a certain hockey player making a goal after hitting a slap shot is .
We need to figure out the number of successful slap shots if she makes 120 attempts?
Since the player is able to make a goal once out of 5 attempts. Therefore, in order to find the number of goals that we can expect the player to make successfully if she attempts 120 slap shots we will multiply the probability with 120.
