Answer:

The manager's claim is likely to be true.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the factory produces  42,000  computer monitors per day

And the claim is of this amount produces fewer than 660 are defective.

a random sample shows that of 240 monitors 2 are defective

to verify the factory managers claim we need to know how many 240s are there in 42000

=42000/240= 175

Since each 240 will give 2 defective monitors

175 will give= 175*2= 350

350 is less than 660 hence the managers claim is correct
