EASY 100 POINTS! The distribution of the number of children per family in the United States is strongly skewed right with a mean of 2.5 children per family and a standard deviation of 1.3 children per family.

a) Without doing any calculations, which event is more likely? Explain.
Event A: Randomly selecting a family from the United States that has 3 or more children.
Event B: Randomly selecting 40 families from the United States and finding an average of 3 or more children.

b) The probability of one of the two events listed in part (a) can be calculated even though the distribution of the population is strongly skewed right. For which event can the probability be calculated? Explain.

c) Calculate the probability of the event that you selected in part (b).
