Compilation of Probability Problems

Folks,
I have put together some 50 + probability and permutation/combination problems. I don't think problems harder than these will show up on the actual exam. In short, I have a feeling that if you look at these, you should be able to solve the probability problems that appear on the exam.

Good luck!

Re: Compilation of Probability Problems

thanks!

I was looking for something to help me strengthen out my combination/probability skills.


note: Found a couple of mistakes in the first few (qt6. credit card had 6 digits btw) and some qts can be clearer (qt 4).

Re: Compilation of Probability Problems

I know Erin rarely stickies things when people tell him to, but I really think that this should become a sticky, considering that everyone stresses out over probability so much. This will provide them with more than ample practice!

Re: Compilation of Probability Problems

Ok..I guess I should have also added a disclaimer. ** PLEASE USE AT YOUR OWN RISK**. I am not the person who wrote these problems. I have only collected them from various posts in this forum. There may be mistakes and ambiguities which can be discussed on this forum. But overall, I think this is a pretty well rounded set of questions.

Re: Compilation of Probability Problems

Jemily,

Your set of docs are very helpful as well. I hope Erin can make this post a sticky so everyone will have these for their reference. Or else, they get lost in the jungle of posts.

Thanks!
