b. What fraction of the calls last more than 5 minutes?

c. What fraction of the calls last between 5 and 6 minutes?

d. What fraction of the calls last between 4 and 6 minutes?

e. As part of her report to the president, the director of communications would like to report the length of the longest (in duration) 4 percent of calls. What is this time?
