Question

The document discusses a university web server with 5 equally reliable components that all must work for the server to function properly. If the overall reliability desired is 95%, what reliability is needed for each individual component? To calculate this, the desired 95% overall reliability is raised to the power of the number of components (5) to get the needed reliability of 0.9898 for each component.
