Dude! What are these questions for? Homework? Exam? Fun? Hobby? Brain teasers (mind gymnastics)? Are you tallying up points? Is there a grand prize? :smile:

Hello,

I am studying these questions on probability to assimilate the concepts better and to exercise my mind. I am sending for the list to learn more with the opinion and the answers of the participants. If we thinks that I am exaggerating, sorry. I don't post more question. If we could help me with the questions that I sent, I thank.
 
Just FYI, we also have a private messaging system! Try going through your user control panel, or click on your target's name on one of his posts.
 
Oh, okay. Thanks, Hurkyl.
