- Homework Statement
- two Hunters A and B set out to hunt ducks. each of them hits as often as he misses when shooting at ducks. the probability that B bags more ducks than A can be expressed as p/q in its lowest form.
Find the value of p+q.
- Relevant Equations
- P(A intersection B)=P(A)×P(B)
when A and B are independent events.
I decided to take cases.For example-:A gets one 1 duck and B gets 2,3,4,...,51.So i can write this as
50C1(1/2)5051C2(1/2)51+50C1(1/2)5051C3(1/2)51+...
But i was unable to solve it further.
please help.
