The number of raisins in a 16-ounce bag of oatmeal raisin cookies is normally distributed with a mean of 1051 raisins and a standard deviation of 213 raisins. Answer the following questions; round answers to three decimal places. 1. What proportion of 16-ounce bags of oatmeal raisin cookies contains fewer than 900 chocolate chips? 2. What is the probability that 14 randomly selected bags of oatmeal raisin cookies contain on average fewer than 900 raisins? 3. Which is more likely: choosing one bag with fewer than 900 raisins, or choosing 14 bags with an average of fewer than 900 raisins? 4. Explain why on your paper.
