    Mean for each hour = 1

    Mean for four hours, m = 4

    P (x, m) = m^x*e^ (-m) / x!

    where x is number of defects.

    P (X<=3,4)

    =P (X=0,4) + P (X=1,4) + P (X=2,4) + P (X=3,4)

    =0.01832+0.07326+0.14653+0.19537

    =0.43355

    Probability of at most 3 defects in four hours is 0.43355
