Question 1168796: Scoring a hole-in-one is the greatest shot a golfer can make. Once 6 professional golfers each made holes-in-one on the 4th hole at the same golf course at the same tournament. It has been found that the estimated probability of making a hole-in-one is 1/2199 for male professionals. Suppose that a sample of 6 professional male golfers is randomly selected.
(a) What is the probability that none of these golfers make a hole-in-one on the 12th hole at the same tournament?
(b) What is the probability that all of these golfers make a hole-in-one on the 12th hole at the same tournament?

not sure what is significance of 12th hole after 4th hole was described.
For none of them it would be (2198/2199)^6=0.9973

for all of them, it would be (1/2199)^6=8.84 x 10^(-21)
