C
The probability that the number of free throws made out of 8 is at most 3 .
D
The probability that the number of free throws made out of 8 is lower than 3 .

Explanation

The notation P(X ≤ 3) means the probability that the random variable X is less than or equal to 3. In this context, X is the number of free throws made out of 8, so the event includes making exactly 3 or any fewer. That matches “at most 3.”
