Question

A computer chip company finds the experimental probability of manufacturing a defective computer chip is 1/3 how many defective computer chips are likely to be in a batch of 735 computer chips

Answer 1

There are 245 expected defective chips in the batch

Explanation:

From the question, we have that in a batch of computer chips, it is expected that a third is defective

Now, in this present batch, there are 735 chips

The number of defective chips is a third of this

Thus, we have the number of defective chips as;

1/3 * 735 = 245 chips
