Question 1108700: suppose you roll a 10-sided die with sides marked with numbers 0 to 9. If you continued to roll and recorded the outcomes, what do you think the probability would be that at some point you see 10 digits in a row that make up your phone number..explain Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Each number has a 1/10 probability, and the results are independent.
With a seven digit number, it is 1 in 10^7.
With a ten digit number, it is 1 in 10^10, both very low probabilities.
