If Jill Places 3 red and 3 green marbles in 2 boxes then bill comes in and picks a marble out of one box To win he needs a red Marble How should Jill place the marbles to give bill the best chance?

If you place 3 marbles in each box then the probability is always one half or 50%. If you do not put exactly 3 marbles in each box, the probability will become less than 50%. It does not matter what colors of marbles you put in each box.

What is the probability from drawing 4 spades from a deck of cards?

In an ordinary deck of cards, there are 52 cards out of which 13 are spades. This means that the chances of drawing the first spade is 13 out of 52. The probability of the second spade is 12 out of 51 because one spade and, incidentally, one card are now missing. The third spade comes out as 11 out of 50 and the last one as 10 out of 49.

Total probability of events that don't affect each other is the product of the individual probabilities. Thus, the chances of drawing four spades is (13 / 52) * (12 / 51) * (11 / 50) * (10 / 49), which is about 0.00264 -- in other words, one to 379.

What is the probability of getting 3 for tossing a die 300 times?

What is the probability that the person 85 years or older will live to year 2050?

The probability is extremely close to 0. The person who is 85 now would be 121 or more in 2050. Of the 7 billion people in the world today, a lot fewer than 700000 will live to 121. And that is a probability of less than 0.0001.

What are the odds of hitting a royal flush in video poker holding a king of hearts and a jack of hearts and drawing three cards?

Since it's video poker, we can assume that the only cards drawn are the ones you started with. There are exactly 47 cards left in the deck. There are 6 series of draws you can get that will give you ace, queen, and 10 (3!, or 3x2x1).

The number of sequences of 3 cards in a 47 card deck is 47!/44!, or 47x46x45, and since 6 of the sequences leave you with the hand you want, you have exactly 6/(47x46x45) probability to get one of them.

This works out to 1 in 16,215.

If equiped card is sent to the deck does it still take effect?

What is the probability that at least 2 people in the class of 25 will share the same birthday?

Birthdays are not distributed uniformly over a year but if, for the sake of probability games you assume that they are, then ignoring leap years, the probability is 0.5687. Including leap years, it is slightly lower.

What is the probability of rolling the sum of 8 with a 4 sided die and a 12 sided die?

Assuming the 4-sided die is numbered 1 to 4 and the 12 sided one is numbered 1-12, the answer is 4/(4*12) = 1/12

Of a class has 22 students 8 girls and 14 boys what is the probability that a 4 student committee with equal number of boys and girls will be selected from this class?

Total possibilities of any 4 from 22 is (22 x 21 x 20 x 19)/(4 x 3 x 2) ie 7315.

Any 2 boys out of 8 is (8 x 7)/2 ie 28 and any 2 girls out of 14 is (14 x 13)/2 ie 91.

These pairs can be combined in 91 x 28 ways ie 2548 so probability of 2 & 2 is

2548 out of 7315 which is 0.35 all but a whisker!

With 2 dice can you roll 1 die at a time?

Yes, you can roll one die (of a two dice set) at a time. Statistically, since they are unrelated, even if rolled together, it does not matter if you roll one or two at a time.
