Assume that the smiling time of eight-week old babies, in seconds, follows a uniform distribution between 0 and 23 seconds, inclusive. This means that any smiling time from 0 to and including 23 seconds is equally likely.

Let X = length, in seconds, of an eight-week old baby's smile.

Find the 90th percentile for an eight week old baby's smiling time.
