Answer:

0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

For a normal distribution, the 68-95-99.7 rule says that 68% of the distribution lies within 1 standard deviation from the mean, 95% within two standard deviations and 99.7% within three standard deviations.

From the question,

Mean μ = 298 ml

Standard deviation σ = 3 ml

A value of 295 ml is within one standard deviation = 68%.

Since it's on the lower side, it's within 68% ÷ 2 = 34%.

The lower half below the mean is 50% of the distribution. Hence, for a selection less than 1 standard deviation, the probability is

50% - 34% = 16% = 0.16

the area of a bathroom floor measures 3 yards by 3 yards and each custom tile that makes up the flooring is 1 1/2 square yards.
wel

Using the area, the number of tiles needed to cover the floor is 6.

<h3>What is area?</h3>

The area is the region bounded by the shape of an object.

Therefore, the bathroom floor measures 3 yards by 3yards.

Hence the area of the bathroom floor can be calculated as follows;

area of the bathroom floor = 3 × 3

area of the bathroom floor = 9 yards²

The area of the custom tiles that makes the flooring is 1 1  /2 square yards.

Hence,

number of tiles needed to cover the floor = 9 ÷ 3  /2

number of tiles needed to cover the floor = 9 × 2  / 3

number of tiles needed to cover the floor = 18 / 3

number of tiles needed to cover the floor = 6
