Question:

a. Find the probability of getting exactly 4 sleepwalkers among 5 adults.
b. Find the probability of getting 4 or more sleepwalkers among 5 adults.
c. Which probability is relevant for determining whether 4 is a significantly high number of sleepwalkers among 5 adults: the result from part (a) or part (b)?
