A sales representative makes sales on approximately one-fifth of all calls. On a given day, the representative contacts six potential clients. What is the probability that a sale will be made with at least one contact?
-
Probability of not making a sale on a call = 4/5
Probability of not making a sale on 6 calls = (4/5)^6 = 0.262
Probability of at least 1 sale = 1-.262 = 0.738
Probability of not making a sale on 6 calls = (4/5)^6 = 0.262
Probability of at least 1 sale = 1-.262 = 0.738
