In a city with 5000 adults, a sample of 100 asked their opinion of a proposed city project; 60 are found to favor it, and 40 opposed it. If, in fact, the adults of the town were equally divided on the proposal, what would be the probability of obtaining a majority of 60 or more factoring in a sample of 100?
