For the binomial distribution with $n = 24$ and $p = 0.6$, state whether or not it is suitable to use the normal distribution as an approximation.
A) Normal approximation is suitable.
B) Normal approximation is not suitable.

The normal approximation is suitable because both $np = 24 \times 0.6 = 14.4$ and $n(1-p) = 24 \times 0.4 = 9.6$ are greater than 5.
