The probability of matching three out of five numbers is 153/33649

<h3>How to determine the probability?</h3>

The numbers are given as:

1 to 23

There are five matching numbers

The  probability of getting a match is:

p = 5-k/n where k = 0, 1, 2

While the complement probability is

q = (n - 2)/n

Using the above formulas, the probability of getting from 5 is:

P = 5/23 * 4/22 * 3/21 * 18/20 * 17/19

Evaluate the product

P = 153/33649

Hence, the probability of matching three out of five numbers is 153/33649

The volume of a cube is 27000 cubic inches. What is the length of one side?
anyanavicka [17]

Given:

Volume of a cube = 27,000 in^3

(Note: A cube has equal sides)

The volume of a cube = a^3

So,

\begin{gathered} 27000=a^3 \\ \sqrt[3]{27000}\text{ = a} \\ a\text{ = 30 in.} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the lenght of one side is 30 inches.
