You were not asking for clarification, you just stated the fact that you didnt get it. Reload2 clarified it perfectly for you already. This thread was not to help you understand but to help Roy with a problem. No one would be happy if everyone on this forum posted "I don't understand" or "I don't get it" to every thread that is about a topic that they are less knowledgable about. If you think this okay can I go to every advanced programming thread and say "I don't get this."?

Its not about whether you want to post, but its about the forum rule and worldly annoyance-> SPAM. I have been here longer than you and I know that people don't like unhelpful spam.

Sorry about that, back on topic-> Problems of this type use the binomial model and some advanced calculators can do bernoulli trials such as this if you input the num of successes, num of trials, and the prob. of success. One calculator that I know can do this is the TI-83.
