Hello all,
In a bag there are 18 paper notes. On five of them there is the digit 2, on seven the digit 3, and on six the digit 5. A man takes 3 notes by random. If the multiplicity of the notes is even, he wins 25 dollars. If for each game he pays 6 dollars, what is the average of profit he has after 90 games?
In order to solve, I think first I need the probability of getting an even multiplicity, which is tricky. Can you assist please ?
