If it is a known fact that 13% of all residential phone numbers are unlisted and you randomly select 100 numbers from the phone book, how many of the 100 do you expect to be unlisted?

None, because they are listed as they're in the phone book which you get them from. Nice try.

It would depend on a whole load of other statistics that you haven't provided. How old is the phone book? What is the rate at which previously listed subscribers opt to become unlisted, what is the rate at which numbers change?

If they are unlisted they wouldn't be in the phone book so the answer is 0.
