the waiting times between a subway departure schedule and the arrival of a passenger are uniformly distributed between 0 and 6 minutes find the probability that a randomly selected passenger has a waiting time less than 0.75 minutes (round to three decimal places as needed)

a passenger uniformly distributed between 0 and 6 minutes

the passenger has a waiting time less than 0.75 minutes

Normalizing = 0.75/6 = 0.125

P(x<0.75) = 0.125 = 12.5%
