Question:
A walk-in medical clinic has four doctors that serve patients with health problems on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Patients arrive at the clinic at the rate of 10 per hour according to a Poisson distribution. The probability that there is no patient in the medical clinic is 0.073.
What is the probability that an arriving patient must wait for service ? (approximately)
