    Since the chip either passes or fails, this problem is one in binomial probability, with p (fail) = 0.02 and n=5.

    If your calculator features probability functions such as binompdf (n, p), use it.

    Mine is a TI-83 Plus.

    The probability that exactly two chips will fail is

    binompdf (5,0.02,2) = 0.0038. This is quite a small probability.
