3.To find out the prevalence of smallpox vaccine use, a researcher inquired into the number of times a randomly selected 200 people aged 16 and over in an African village had been vaccinated. He obtained the following figures: never, 17 people; once, 30; twice, 58; three times, 51; four times, 38; five times, 7. Assuming these proportions continue to hold exhaustively for the population of that village, what is the expected number of times those people in the village had been vaccinated, and what is the standard deviation?
