In a certain presidential election, Alaska's 40 election districts averaged 1,951.8 votes per district for a candidate. The standard deviation was 572.5. (There are only 40 election districts in Alaska.) The distribution of the votes per district for one candidate was bell-shaped. Let X = number of votes for this candidate for an election district. This is the distribution X ~ N (1951.8, 572.5) Find the probability that a randomly selected district had fewer than 1,700 votes for this candidate. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
