hey, I'm in a grade 12 probability and statistics class, and I've been assigned to create a board game and calculate the probability of winning. All my ideas get to complicated and I am finding my self confused so I am trying to keep it relatively simple. It is a board game where the first person to the finish will win, which has 50 individual squares to travel through. You roll two die, and move along through each space accordingly. When you land on a spot you flip a coin. If it lands on heads you move forward a square, and if tails, back one. I am suppose to calculate the theoretical probability of winning and the expected value... can anyone offer any help on how to do this? PS. when you reach the end you do not flip a coin and any roll over the amount of spaces you needed to reach the end still counts as a win.
