Answer:

Probability of fifth person = p (5/10)

                                               = p (1/2)

Explanation has given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The population has the type of blood  investigated = 10%

The immunologist needs five people to complete her study.

Probability of finding a 5th person when she starts tests her 10th volunteer?

Probability = p ( 10C5)

                   = 252%

                  =2.52

When she tested her 10th volunteer,

There is a 2% probability that she will find a fifth person for her study.

Another way to find out the probability of the fifth person,

When she started her 10th volunteer.

Probability of fifth person = p (5/10)

                                               = p (1/2)
