Answer:
The probability that they each will catch 3 fish is 0.000063956
Step-by-step explanation:
The hyper geometric distribution is used to solve this as it has a population, a sample , number of successes for both the population and sample.
Here
Population size= N =200
Sample size= n =9= (3*3)
Number of successes in population = k = 3 hours
Number of successes in sample = x= 3
Applying the hyper geometric distribution
P (x=3) = kCx *(N-k) C (n-x)/ N Cn
= 3 C 3 * 197 C 6/ 200 C 9
=0.000063956
The probability that they each will catch 3 fish is 0.000063956
