At every one of FullyFit’s gyms, each member agrees to have his or her fitness assessed every month by undertaking a set of exercise called S. There is a five-minute time limit on any attempt to complete § and if someone completes S in less than three minutes, they are considered fit. At FullyFit’s Melbourne gym, it has been found thatthe probability that any member will complete S in less than three minutes is 5. This is independent of any other member. Ina particular week, 20 members of this gym attempt is S.
