Question

If a binomial event has a probability of success of 0.8, how many successes

would you expect out of 6000 trials?
A.4800
B.3600
C.2400
D.1200

Answer 1

A) Out of 6,000 trials, one can expect 4800 successes.

Explanation:

Here, the total number of trials = 6,000

The probability of winning each trial = 0.8

Now, as we know in a BINOMIAL EVENT:

q = n x p

⇒ The number of success out of 6,000 trials

= 6,000 x (0.8) = 4800

Hence, out of 6,000 trials, one can expect 4800 successes.
