A) The longest horizontal distance is reached at 45 degrees angle. This is true for any projectile launch.
B) First, calculate fligth time (using the vertical motion) and then calculate the horizontal movement.
Flight time = 2* ascendent time
ascendent time => final vertical velocity, Vy, = 0
sin(45) = Voy / Vo => Voy = Vosin(45) = 25.5 m/s * (√2) / 2 = 18.03 m/s
Vy = Voy - gt = 0 => Voy = gt = t = Voy / g
Use g = 10 m/s^ (it is an aproximation, because the actual value is about 9.81 m/s^2 depending on the latitud)
t = 18.03 m/s / 10 m/s^2 = 1.83 s
This is the ascendant time going upward.
The flight time is 2*1.83 = 3.66 s
Horizontal motion
Horizontal velocity = Vx = constant = Vox = Vo*cos(45) = 18.03 m/s
Vx = x / t => x = Vx*t
Horizontal distance = xmax = 18.03m/s*3.66 s = 65.99 m
c) The time the ballon will be in the air was calculated in the part B, it is 18.03 s

If nCk represents the number of ways k parts can be chosen from a pool of n, the probability of interest is the complement of the probability of selecting all good parts.
1 - (167C3)/(170C3) = 42,085/804,440 ≈ 0.0523
_____
nCk = n!/(k!(n-k)!)
If a^ x = b then:
x = log_{a}b
For:
4^{7} = 16384 \\ log _{4}16384 = 7
