The waiting times between a subway departure schedule and the arrival of a passenger are uniformly distributed between 00 and 66 minutes.
thus, the probability that a randomly selected passenger has a waiting time greater than 4.254. minutes is given as ,

P =
(66-4.254)/(66)
or P = 61.75/66
or P = 0.93
thus, the probability that a randomly selected passenger has a waiting time greater than 4.254. minutes is 0.93
