New york Lottery

[galaktik]

Hmm looks to me more like server lottery, then New York lottery....

Anyway here are statistics on 2 numbers out of 10

You want to calculate your odds at winning the lottery given:

* You must choose a sequence of 2 numbers correctly to win.
* The lowest number you can choose is 1
* The highest number you can choose is 9
* A given number can only be chosen once per try (per lottery ticket, etc.)

When you select your 1st number, you have 9 numbers to choose from, and a 1 in 9 chance of picking the right one.
(Mathematically, 1 in 9 is represented by the numerical fraction 1/9 or 0.111111 %)

When you select your 2nd number, you have 8 numbers to choose from, and a 1 in 8 chance of picking the right one.
(Mathematically, 1 in 8 is represented by the numerical fraction 1/8 or 0.125000 %)

So by that numbers if more then 36 players would choose difrent numbers one would win for sure or player has chance of 1/36 to win
