In a certain animal population, for each of the first 3 months of life, the probability that an animal will die during that month is 1/10. For a group of 500 newborn members of the population, approximately how many would be expected to survive the first 3 months of life?
Select.
A) 340	B) 346	C) 352	D) 365	E) 370
Number of newborns that can die in first month = 1/10 * 500=
