Answer:

Probability of choosing number = 0.9192

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

New mean = 87.8

Mean = 85

Standard deviation = 14

Number picked = 49

Find:

Probability of choosing number

Computation:

Probability of choosing number = [New mean - Mean] / [Standard deviation / √Number picked]

Probability of choosing number <= [(87.8-85)]/[(14/7)]

Probability of choosing number = 0.9192
