The probability of getting a bad egg in a lot of 400 is 0.035. The number of bad eggs in the lot is 14. Explanation: Here, Total number of eggs = 400 Probability of getting a bad egg = 0.035 $\Rightarrow$ `"Number of bad eggs"/"Total number of eggs" = 0.035 $\Rightarrow$ "Number of bad eggs"/400` = 0.035 $\therefore$ Number of bad eggs = 0.035 $\times$ 400 = 14
