Ok, so I have one question why here:

in a) at gdc screen upper we have 1E+07
whereas here http://scr.hu/0hj9/d4jdx it's 1E+99 ?

If I remember rightly, it comes from the fact that the probability becomes extremely small after 10^6. Therefore, it does not really matter whether you have the upper bound as 10^6 or 10^9999999. It is practically the same. The difference is like 0.000000000001. As you need three sig fig and lets say three decimal places, you could use either value. I hope it helps :) Let me know if you dont get it.
