3. A new computer virus attacks a folder consisting of 10 files.


Each file gets damaged with probability 0.2 independently of
the other files. What is the probability that (i) at least 3 files
Get damaged (ii) between 3 and 7 files get damaged? (iii)
Also use poisson distribution to approximate the probability
in (ii).
