Undergrad Probability question - hypergeometric distribution?
Ah. Ok. So basically you're saying that of the remaining 12 balls, the probability that C has at least one ball higher than my highest ball which is 9 is (1 - probability that C has all balls lower than mine). Which comes to 1 - (5/12 * 4/11 * 3/10 * 2/9) = 1 - 120/11880 = 0.98... That seems...- AskingQ

Undergrad Probability question - hypergeometric distribution?
Hi, I have never quite worked this type of probability question out, so would like some help please. Imagine this scenario: There are 4 people sat around a table, A, B, C and D. A is sitting opposite C, B is sitting opposite D. There is a bag with 16 balls numbered 1-16. The balls are...- AskingQ
