Answer:

0.3718688642

Step-by-step explanation:

Weekdays consist of 5 days and weekends consists of 2 days. ... In case if you do not know, there are 7 days in a week.

The probability of one student who were born on a weekday

= 5/7

The probability of one student who were born on a weekend

= 2/7

This question then can be solved by using the binomial distribution formula,

[tex]P(X = 4) = \binom{5}{4} { (\frac{5}{7}) }^{4} {( \frac{2}{7}) }^{1} \\ = 0.3718688642 [/tex]
