1. In a clinical trial with two treatment groups, the probability of success in one treatment (call this group A) is 0.5, and the probability of success in the other is 0.6 (call this gro Suppose that there are five patients in each group. Assume that the outcomes of all patients are independent. Thus the number of successes group follows a binomial distribution. Calculate the probability that the first group (group A) will have at least as many successes second group (group B).
