4.195 Traffic Fatalities. According to Accident Facts, published by
the National Safety Council, a probability distribution of age group
for drivers at fault in fatal crashes is as follows.
Age (yr) Probability
16-24 0.255
25-34 0.238
35-64 0.393
65 & over 0.114
Of three fatal automobile crashes, find the probability that

age groups 16-24, 25-34, and 35-64, respectively.
b. two of the drivers at fault are between 16 and 24 years old, and
