(C) The total number of pages is $600$ and the total number of mistakes is $40$. The average number of mistakes per page,denoted by $\lambda$,is $\lambda = \frac{40}{600} = \frac{1}{15}$. The number of errors per page follows a Poisson distribution with parameter $\lambda = \frac{1}{15}$. The probability that a single page has no mistakes is given by $P(X=0) = \frac{e^{-\lambda} \lambda^0}{0!} = e^{-\lambda} = e^{-1/15}$. Since we are selecting $10$ pages at random,the probability that all $10$ pages have no mistakes is $(P(X=0))^{10} = (e^{-1/15})^{10} = e^{-10/15} = e^{-2/3}$.

Suppose that a book of $600$ pages contains $40$ print mistakes. Assume that these errors are randomly distributed throughout the book and the number of errors per page follows a Poisson distribution. The probability that all the $10$ pages selected at random have no print mistakes is
