The probability that a randomly selected box of cereal will weigh more than 904 grams is 0.8849, or 88.49%. This can be calculated using the normal distribution formula:P(X > 904) = 1 - P(X <= 904) = 1 - 0.8849 = 0.1151Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected box of cereal will weigh more than 904 grams is 0.1151, or 11.51%.
