Algebra.Com's Answer #400807 by Alan3354(69443) You can put this solution on YOUR website! A random number is generated between 0 and 100 on one try. \n" ); document.write( "To \"win\" the number must be 10 or below. \n" ); document.write( "I can try multiple times. \n" ); document.write( "Doesn't the probably increase the more times I \"try\"? \n" ); document.write( "Can a formula be put to that? \n" ); document.write( "------------ \n" ); document.write( "The probability is the same for each try. \n" ); document.write( "0 to 100 is 101 elements. \n" ); document.write( "0 to 10 is 11 elements. \n" ); document.write( "--> 11/101 for each try. \n" ); document.write( "--------------------------- \n" ); document.write( "If you try 2 times, the chance is 2x as much or getting 1 win, etc.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
