Problem 2

During a particular month, a hospital recorded a total of 120120 births. Assuming that births occur randomly and independently at a constant average rate, use the Poisson distribution to determine the probability that on a randomly selected day, exactly 33 births occur. Assume that 11 month is equal to 3030 days.
