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 1/6. 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 answer: A) 116 B) 146 C) 152 D) 162 E) 170

Rationale: "the probability of survival for each of the first 3 months of life is 1 - 1 / 6 = 5 / 6 , so of 200 newborn 200 * 5 / 6 * 5 / 6 * 5 / 6 = ~ 116 is expected to survive . answer : a ."
