    Answer:

    0.6341 = 63.41% probability that his commute today took more than 35 minutes

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Randomly distributed = Uniform distribution.

    A distribution is called uniform if each outcome has the same probability of happening.

    The uniform distributon has two bounds, a and b, and the probability of finding a value higher than x is given by:

    P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b - a}

    Randomly distributed with a minimum of 20 minutes, a maximum of 61 minutes.

    This means that a = 20, b = 61.

    What is the probability that his commute today took more than 35 minutes?

    P(X > 35) = \frac{61 - 35}{61 - 20} = 0.6341

    0.6341 = 63.41% probability that his commute today took more than 35 minutes
