Fifty seeds were selected at random from each of 5 bags of seeds, and were kept under standardised conditions favourable to germination. After 20 days the number of seeds which had germinated in each collection were counted and recorded as follows:
`{:("Bag", 1, 2, 3, 4, 5), ("No. of seeds germinated":, 40, 48, 42, 39, 41):}` What is the probability of germination of:
(i)more than 40 seeds in a bag? (ii)49 seeds in a bag?           (iii)more than 35 seeds in a bag (iv)at least 40 seeds in a bag? (v)at most 40 seeds in a bag?

Total outcomes=`50`
(i)P(germination of more than 40 seeds in a bag)=`3/5`
(ii)P(germination of more than 49 seeds in a bag)=`0/5=0`
(iii)P(germination of more than 35 seeds in a bag)=`5/5=1`
