In a certain animal population, for each of the first 3 months of life, the probability that an animal will die during that month is 1/10. For a group of 200 newborn members of the population, approximately how many would be expected to survive the first 3 months of life?	Choose the correct choice from the following:
A) 140	B) 146	C) 152	D) 162	E) 170

Rationale: "number of newborns that can die in first month = 1 / 10 * 200 = 20 survived = 180 number of newborns that can die in second month = 1 / 10 * 180 = 18 survived = 162 number of newborns that can die in third month = 1 / 10 * 162 = 16 survived = 146 answer : b"
Answer: B
