Question

It is known that 75% of all brand A external hard drives work in a satisfactory manner throughout the warranty period (are "successes"). Suppose that n = 15 drives are randomly selected. Let X = the number of successes in the sample. The statistic X/n is the sample proportion (fraction) of successes. What is the sampling distribution of this statistic:

X/n and p(X/n) when X=1?
