An auto insurance company insures drivers against accidents. Historical data shows that 5% of the insured drivers file an accident claim each year. If the company insures 200 drivers, let W be a random variable representing the number of drivers who file an accident claim in a year. Find the expression for the probability that more than 10 but less than 20 drivers file an accident claim in a year. [Note: Although calculating this probability is not required, the probability formula should be simplified to minimise the number of terms within the summation].
