$p\%=\dfrac{p}{100}\\\\24\%=\dfrac{24}{100}=\dfrac{24:4}{100:4}=\dfrac{6}{25}$

Since 24% is out of 100%, we can start with the fraction 24/100 and start simplifying:
24/100
12/50
6/25
Now, the factors of 6 besides 1 are 2, 3, and 6. 25 is not evenly divisible by any of these, so the fraction is 6/25.

The number of typing errors made by a typist has a Poisson distribution with an average of two errors per page. If more than two

Answer: 0.6767

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mean = $\lambda=2$ errors per page

Let X be the number of errors in a particular page.

The formula to calculate the Poisson distribution is given by :_

$P(X=x)=\dfrac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^x}{x!}$

Now, the probability that a randomly selected page does not need to be retyped is given by :-

$P(X\leq2)=P(0)+P(1)+P(2)\\\\=(\dfrac{e^{-2}2^0}{0!}+\dfrac{e^{-2}2^1}{1!}+\dfrac{e^{-2}2^2}{2!})\\\\=0.135335283237+0.270670566473+0.270670566473\\\\=0.676676416183\approx0.6767$
