Hi,

Am not set-up for private-pay tutoring. 

Recommend checking the list of Tutors, a number of them are.

In general: If P(happening) = 1/n ,  ODDS against would be: (n-1) to 1.

for ex: p = 1/8, then odds against would be 7 to 1.  

Note: The probability of x successes in n trials is: 

P = nCx*  where p and q are the probabilities of success and failure respectively. 

In this case p(man)= 1/2 & q(women)= 1/2 or .5

nCx = 

If the are 13 job posiitons open, and all other things being equal, what is P(x= 13)

  P(x = 13) =
