Kevin pose la question : There is a contest with 31 people and only one winner each week.
We play for 17 weeks.
What are the odds of winning at least one week?
The chances of winning each week are independent from previous weeks. Robert Dawson lui répond.
Kevin pose la question : I have been asked by a customer in Missisauga to track down some odds of
winning a contest. In this contest, the last 4 digits of the winner's
driver's license number have to match the last 4 digits of a Harley VIN
number. There are 200 people maximum allowed into the drawing, 10,000 total
possible VIN combos. Would the odds be 1:50 or something other than that? Harley Weston lui répond.
john pose la question : I won a contest and they have a confusing format for the STQ. here it is: 11 (+) 44 (x) 2 (-) 10 (%) 25 I've never seen brackets around the operands and wondering how to treat it. I fear they want me to answer the question left to right as the answer is 4 if I use BEDMAS I get 98.6 (which clearly sounds wrong for what they want) any thoughts? Stephen La Rocque lui répond.
