The standard deviation of a binomial variable is
sqrt(n*P*(1-P))
where n is the sample size and P is the probability of one of the outcomes.
The sample size is 55 and we'll assume that both male and female are equally likely outcomes.
standard deviation = sqrt(55*.5*.5) = 3.7081%
44% is 1.6181 standard deviations away from the mean of 50%.
Looking this up on a standard deviation chart gives .0526 probability which we'll round to 0.053</span>
Step-by-step explanation: If the run is 1 section wide at each end, that would leave 34 for each 1 yard section for the lengths needed. So, 34 / 2 = 17 sections in length. You could also do it like this 17 + 1 + 17 + 1 = 36 for a simpler calculation.
