ANSWER:

Solution :

Step 1 of 4:

Our goal is:

We need to find the probability.

Given the top 5 countries for movie releases so far this year:

U.S. = 471 releases, United Kingdom = 386, Japan = 79, Germany = 316, and France =  132.

The total 5 countries :

= U.S.+United Kingdom+Japan+Germany+France

= 471+386+79+316+132

= 1384

Therefore, the total 5 countries is 1384.

a). The probability of European is

P(European) =

P(European) =

P(European) = 0.6026

Therefore, the probability of European is 0.6026.
