Question 18
The application for the degree “Master in Being Useless (MBU)” has begun at “Star University (SU)”. The applicants to SU are from three professional categories namely “TV Watcher”, “Mobile Gamer” and “Procrastinator”. The previous year admissions indicate that 20% of the total applications are Procrastinators, 40% are Mobile Gamers and the rest are TV Watchers.
When examining past applications submitted by the three professional categories, it is seen that the applications are either “Fully Completed”, “Half Completed” or “Blank”. It is observed that among the “Mobile Gamer” applications that are received, 30% are “Fully Completed” and 60% is “Half Completed”. For TV Watcher applications that are received, 40% are “Half Completed” and 20% are “Blank”. Among all received Procrastinator applications, 50% have submitted “Blank” applications and 40% have submitted “Half Completed” applications.
Assuming the necessary mutual exclusiveness, answer the given subquestions.
If a total of 550 applications are expected to be received for the upcoming admission, then how many would you expect to be “Blank”?
