Does he have reason to be suspicious? The question he should ask is the following: given that he packed exactly 48 illegal pills, what is the probability that none of the 15 tested were illegal? 18 Compute the probability that a fair coin tossed 200 times comes up heads exactly half of the time. Similarly, what is the probability that in 600 rolls of a fair die, each face shows up exactly 100 times? 19 The following is the full description of the game of Craps. On the first roll of a pair of dice, 7 and 11 win, while 2, 3 and 12 lose.

With this property. Hence 6! 555. . 63 1296 Birthday Coincidences. If n students show up at random in a classroom, what is the probability that at least two of them have the same birthday? In order to solve this problem we will make some simplifications. We will assume that there are only 365 days in every year; that is, we ignore leap years. Next, we will assume that every day of the year is equally likely to be a birthday. Lastly, we assume that the students’ birthdays are independent dates.

It was his brief exchange of letters with Pascal that founded probability theory. Fortunately, Pascal and especially Mersenne, operated a correspondence network with other European thinkers, and Fermat’s ideas were widely distributed. Although Fermat claimed to have proved all his arithmetic theorems, few records of his proofs have survived. Many mathematicians, including Gauss, doubted several of his claims, especially given the difficulty of some of the problems and the limited mathematical tools available to Fermat.
