Answer: 0.0057

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be a binomial variable that represents the number of widgets are green.

Given : Probability that a widget is green = 0.275

Sample size : n= 4

Binomial probability distribution formula:

[tex]P(X=x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^x[/tex]

Now, the probability that at least one of them is green will be

[tex]P(X\geq1)=1-P(X<1)=1-P(X=0)\\\\=1-^4C_0(0.275)^0(0.275)^4\\\\=(1)(1)(0.275)^4\\\\\approx0.0057[/tex]

Hence, the probability that at least one of them is green = 0.0057
