Question:

You are the statistician responsible for quality standards at a cheese factory. You want the probability that a randomly chosen block of cheese labelled \(1 \mathrm{~kg}\) is actually less than 1 kilogram (1,000 grams) to be \(1 \%\) or less. The weight (in grams) of blocks of cheese produced by the machine is normal \(\left({ }^{2}\right.\) ) where \({ }^{2}=3^{2}\). The weights (in grams) of 20 blocks of cheese are:
