A board game involves guessing which 1 of 6 characters commited mrder in 1 of 9 rooms with 1 of 6 possible weapons.
\n" ); document.write( "a) How many different guesses can be made if 1 character, 1 room, and 1 weapon must be guessed?
\n" ); document.write( "(1/6)*(1/9)*(1/6) = 1/324
\n" ); document.write( "--> 324 combinations
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "b) You are dealt 6 cards that allow you to eliminate 2 characters and 4 rooms. How many different guesses remain if 1 character, 1 room, and 1 weapon must be chosen?
\n" ); document.write( "That leaves 4 chars, 5 rooms and 6 weapons
\n" ); document.write( "--> 4*5*6 = 120 combinations
