    The wording "a student scored 90 or higher" can be interpreted several ways.

    A suitable calculator shows that the probability a randomly selected student scored 90 or higher is about 0.0021374.

    The probability that at least one student scored 90 or higher is about

    1 - (1 - 0.0021374) ^100 ≈.1926

    The probability that exactly one student scored 90 or higher is about

    100 * (0.0021374) (1 - 0.0021374) ^99 ≈ 0.1729
