in an 8 horse race, the number of ways 3 horses can finish first, second, and third?
Ans: 3*2*1 = 6
--------------------
The expression 7C3 is equivalent to? (the 7 and the 3 are subscript and small)
Ans: 7C3 = (7*6*5)/(1*2*3) = 35
--------------------------------------------
Ted has 5 books. How many different ways can they be arranged on the shelf?
Ans: 5! = 5*4*3*2*1 = 120
-------------------------------------
James has 8 white socks and 4 striped socks. If he picks a white sock from the drawer, what is the probabilitythat the next sock he picks is also white?
Ans: 7/11
-----------------
Which of the following cannot be an answer to a probability question
0, 30%, 10/11, 11/10
Ans: 11/10 because it is greater than one.
