The Poisson distribution with parameter np will be a good approximation for the binomial distribution with parameters n and p when n is large and p is small. For more details See related link below

How can you compare means of two samples when the samples are chi square distributed?
According to the Central Limit Theorem if the sample size is large enough then the means will tend towards a normal distribution regardless of the distribution of the actual sample.
How do you calculate probability given mean and standard deviation?
The mean and standard deviation do not, by themselves, provide enough information to calculate probability. You also need to know the distribution of the variable in question.
If the mean and median of data is 7 and 8 respectively find its mode?
There is not enough information to be able to determine the mode. The distribution will be left tailed, which will give a clue that the mode is greater than 8. Without the equation of the curve or the actual data, the mode can not be determined.

Twenty Minutes with Mrs Oakentubb' by waqar ali khaskheli?
This story is about a man who's wife and daughter got killed, and he didn't want to live after what happened. Fate gives him a chance to live and take revenge from the lady who killed his family ruthlessly. The murderer of his family didn't get enough punishment. Eighteen months in prison for killing innocent people was not enough. Vengeance became his purpose to live. On the other hand, he wanted to execute justice.
What conditions must be met in order to use the normal distribution to approximate the binomial distribution?
The condition is that the number of trials, n, is "sufficiently" large. There is no specific value for n. If p, the probability of success at each individual trial is close to 0.5 then n > 25 is good enough. If p is either very close to 0 or 1, then n needs to be larger.
A binomial distribution has a mean of 12 and a standard deviation of 2.683 find n and p?
There is not enough information to find n & p. The mean is n*p and the std dev = sqrt (n*p*q). You have to be given n, p or q to have 2 equations 2 unknowns to solve.
Intelligence scores follow what kind of distribution?
The IQs of a large enough population can be modeled with a Normal Distribution
What is the difference between the exact solution and a approximate solution?
An exact solution is the accurate solution, whilst an approximate solution is only near enough
Is there enough food for the world?
Yes, but proper distribution is still a problem.

Why are populations limit in their spatial distribution?
Populations are limited in their spatial distribution for a couple of reasons. One of these reasons is that there just isn't enough resources to do it any other way.
Are there many cardiac surgeons in the world?
There are not enough of them. Their distribution acording to needs and resources is uneven and injust.

What is the definition of central limit theorem?
The central limit theorem basically states that as the sample size gets large enough, the sampling distribution becomes more normal regardless of the population distribution.
