A company that manufactures computer chips expects 10 out of every 100 made to be defective. In a shipment of 4500 ​chips, how many are expected to be​ defective?

Answer 1

Out of 4500 computer chips, we can expect 10% (or 0.10) to be defective.

Therefore, the number of defective chips expected = 4500 x 0.10 = 450

So, in a shipment of 4500 chips, 450 are expected to be defective.
