You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You can find this probability by multiplying 41 chosen 5 at a time by the 1 in 35 chance of getting the gold ball...so we get
\n" ); document.write( "(41!)/(41-5)!(5!) = 749398
\n" ); document.write( "times
\n" ); document.write( "35
\n" ); document.write( "equals
\n" ); document.write( "26,228,930
\n" ); document.write( "Thus your chances of hitting it are 1 in 26,228,930.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
