Bulbs are packed in cartons,each containing $40$ bulbs. Seven hundred cartons were examined for defective bulbs,and the results are given in the following table:
Number of defective bulbs $0$ $1$ $2$ $3$ $4$ $5$ $6$ More than $6$
Frequency $400$ $180$ $48$ $41$ $18$ $8$ $3$ $2$

One carton was selected at random. What is the probability that it has defective bulbs from $2$ to $6$?

  • A
    $\frac{59}{350}$
  • B
    $\frac{59}{750}$
  • C
    $\frac{118}{350}$
  • D
    $\frac{18}{35}$
