How to calculate the probability using excel.?
In a certain store, there is a 0.03 probability that the scanned price in the bar code scanner will not match the advertised price. The cashier scans 800 items.

Required:

a.Expected number of mismatches

b.Standard deviation

c.Probability of at least 20 mismatches

d.Probability of more than 30 mismatches

I got 4.8 for the standard deviation and 24 for the expected number of mismatches. Those are right but I can’t figure out how to do c and d.
