A manufacturer of cereal has a machine that, when working properly, puts 20 ounces of cereal on average into a box with a standard deviation of 1 ounce.  Every morning workers weigh 25 filled boxes.  If the average weight is off by more than 1 percent from the desired 20 ounces per box, company policy requires them to rec-callibrate the machine.  

In a sample of 100 days where the machine is working properly all day, on how many of the days is it expected the machine will be re-calibrated?
