Answer

Option B is correct.

Expected number of success = 900

Step-by-step explanation

For a binomial distribution, the expected number of successes is calculated using

Expected number of success = np

n = total number of trials = 1500

p = probability of success = 0.6

Expected number of success = np

Expected number of success = (1500) (0.6) = 900

Hope this Helps!!!
