Anyone want to try their hand at being amazing?

It's challenging I know

Humor me. I'm sure someone can draw up a useful piece of math on this although yes everything will have some assumptions plugged in.

Someone posited that there is an 87% chance that the disagreements between 01 and 03 land on MT just because each agrees with MT 87%. I don't feel like their math is correct. Thank you for your help!!!

Tell me if I'm heading in the right direction here. Take two texts of 100 characters and highlight 8% representing the disagreement between 01 and 03. Now randomly select 13% of each text representing the disagreements between 01/03 & the MT. What are the odds those 13 places overlap the...

So there are about 7,000 words in each text in the texted section. . but we should be able to do the percentages so that shouldn't matter right? We have 8% of each text agreeing to disagree. Then we take a random splatter of 26% between the two texts (13% each text). But oh yeah we would have...

Thanks for your reply. Having a hard time getting started on this problem and my math is rusty. The answer is not 87% of the

Okay let me rephrase this math question and frame it. It is math dealing with ancient Biblical texts and textual criticism. . Codex 01 (350AD) agrees with the MT (mjority text) about 87% of the time. Codex 03 (350AD) Agrees with MT about 87% of the time. 01 and 03 agree with each other...
