    What is the probability?
    Hi I have a question that has to be answered and I am not sure how to get the answer can someone help me please

    A company receives 0.4 calls per minute from customers to register complaints about products
    purchased from the company. Assuming that (I) the probability that a phone call is received in a given
    1-minute period is the same for all the other 1-minute periods, (ii) the number of phone calls received
    in a given 1-minute period is independent of the number of phone calls received in any other 1-minute
    periods. What is the probability that during a 1-minute period
    a. Two or three calls received?
    b. Three or more phone calls will be received?

    Thanks so much for your help
