Boxes are labeled as containing 500 g of cereal. The machine filling the boxes produces weights that are normally distributed with standard deviation 12 g. If the target weight is 500 g, what is the probability that the machine produces a box with less than 290g of cereal? Round your answer to four decimal places.

What will be an ideal response?
