Answer:

11.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total ways to pick 4 computers = 10×9×8×7

Total ways that at least three computers are fine =  

Total ways that all 4 are fine + Total ways any 3 are fine

Total ways that all 4 are fine = 4×3×2×1

Total ways three are fine = 1st is Not working and other 3 working +  

                           2nd is Not working and other 3 working +  

                           3rd is Not working and other 3 working +  

                           4th is Not working and other 3 working +  

                        = 6×4×3×2 + 4×6×3×2 + 4×3×6×2 + 4×3×2×6

                        = 6×4×3×2×4

The probability = Total ways that at least three computers are fine /  

                 Total ways to pick 4 computers  

               =  (4×3×2×1 + 6×4×3×2×4) / (10×9×8×7)

               = (4×3×2×25) / (10×9×8×7)

               = 11.9%

What is 12 divided by 1230 in long division
Bess [88]
It is 102.5. You made it kind of confusing at first by putting the divisor first in your question then putting your dividend, but I understand what you meant.
