Title: A Question About Probability
Post by: kralkral on December 13, 2014, 01:51:20 AM
Let's say we bought 70 tickets out of 10k tickets in a lottery. There are 20 same gifts on lottery. What is the chance of winning a gift in this lottery?

P.S.: Only 1 gift that can be claimed in this lottery even we have 5 or 10 or 20 lucky tickets.
