n the last election, a state representative received 40% of the votes cast. One year after the election, the representative organized a survey that asked a random sample of 100 people whether they would vote for him in the next election. If we assume that his popularity has not changed, what is the probability that more than half of the sample would vote for him? (Find the nearest answer.)

For the simplicity of algebra, use the following approximations if needed:

2.068%

6.681%

8.076%
