Answer with explanation:

Given : Fire load (MJ=m2) is the heat energy that could be released per square meter of floor area by combustion of contents and the structure itself.

The following cumulative percentages are for fire loads in a sample of 388 rooms:

Value               0 150  300    450   600  750

Cumulative %  0  35   55      75     95  100

Let p represents the proportion of fire loads.

(a) From the above table, the percentage of fire loads less than 300 is 55%,i.e.  proportion=0.55.

Now, the proportion of fire loads are less than 300 will be :-

Hence, the proportion of fire loads are less than 300 =0.55

(b) Also, the percentage of fire loads less than 450 is 75%,i.e.  proportion=0.75.

Then, the proportion of fire loads are at least 450 :_

Hence, the proportion of fire loads are at least 450 =0.25

(c) The percentage of fire loads less than 750 is 100%,i.e. proportion= 1.00.

Then, the proportion of fire loads are exactly 750 :-

Hence, the proportion of fire loads are exactly 750=0
