How to solve this Poisson-distribution question?
$begingroup$
The weight of certain type of muffin is approximately
50 grams. Let X be the number of muffins that weigh more than 50 grams has the probability of 0.005. A sample of 100 muffins are selected randomly.
Show that the distribution of muffin that weigh more than 50 gram satisfies Poisson approximation to binomial distribution.

Can you clarify your question? As it stands, it doesn't really make sense.
