The intelligence quotient (1.Q) of a large number of students is normally distributed with mean 100 and standard deviation 10. Suppose that students having an 1.Q of 119.6 or higher are considered "gifted". Let Y be the number of 'gifted" students out of a random sample of 4 independent students, and F be the percent of failing courses in a program, where: F=1-y? Compute the probability of having an 1.Q larger than 116.4 given that it is lower than 119.6 (Enter your answer to two decimal places. For "0.72", you would write 0.72). Do not round.
