    You have to do a histogram here:

    11 sec: 2 people: probability is 2/50 = 1/25 = 0.04

    12 sec: 5 people: probability is 5/50 = 1/10 = 0.1

    13 sec: 8 people: probability is 8/50 = 4/25 = 0.16

    14 sec: 10 people: probability is 10/50 = 1/5 = 0.2

    15 sec: 21 people: probability is 21/50 = 2.38

    16 sec: 2 people: probability is 2/50 = 1/25 = 0.04

    17 sec: 2 people: probability is 2/50 = 1/25 = 0.04
