1 3. 6. 8. 9. 140 A sample of a radioactive material is studied in a lab. There are 1372 gamma ray emissions over 245 seconds. Use the Poisson distribution to find the probability that exactly 3 gamma rays are emitted in a single second. Do not round intermediate computations, and round your answer to three decimal places. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
