1046. Assume that on an average one telephone number out of 15 called between 2 P.M. and 3 P.M. on week days is busy. Why is the probability that if six randomly selected telephone numbers are called, at least three of them will be busy?

Here n = 6
$straight p space equals space 1 over 15 comma space space space straight q space equals space 1 minus 1 over 15 space equals space 14 over 15$
P(at least three numbers are busy) = P(3) + P(4) + P(5) + P(6)
