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 500 newborn members of the population, approximately how many would be expected to survive the first 3 months of life?  Choose the most appropriate option
A) 340	B) 346	C) 352	D) 365	E) 370

Rationale: number of newborns that can die in first month = 1 / 10 * 500 = 50 survived = 450 number of newborns that can die in second month = 1 / 10 * 450 = 45 survived = 405 number of newborns that can die in third month = 1 / 10 * 405 = 40 survived = 365 answer : d
Answer: D
