The number of ants per acre in the forest is normally distributed with a mean of 42,000 and a standard deviation of 12,217. Let \(X\) represent the number of ants in a randomly selected acre of the forest. Round all answers to four decimal places where possible.

a. What is the distribution of \(X\)? \(X \sim N(\) \(\boxed{42,000}\) \(,\) \(\boxed{12,217}\) \()\)

b. Find the probability that a randomly selected acre in the forest has fewer than 46,519 ants.  
\(\boxed{}\)

c. Find the probability that a randomly selected acre has between 30,262 and 44,398 ants.  
\(\boxed{}\)

d. Find the first quartile. \(\boxed{}\) ants (round your answer to a whole number)
