Question:

If the mean of Binomial distribution is 5 and Variance is 3 then the value of p(probability of success ) is :

Options:

$\frac{1}{5}$

$\frac{2}{5}$

$\frac{3}{5}$

$\frac{4}{5}$

Correct Answer:

$\frac{2}{5}$

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2) → $\frac{2}{5}$

$μ=np=5$

$σ=npq=3$

so $\frac{np}{npq}=\frac{5}{3}$

so $q=\frac{3}{5}$

$p=1-q=\frac{2}{5}$
