Question

Find the probability of winning a lottery by selecting the correct six integers where the order in which these integers are selected does not matter from the positive integers not exceeding 30

Answer 1

There are C(30, 6) = 30!/(6!*(30-6)!) = 593,775 ways to pick 6 numbers from the first 30 positive integers.

The probabilty of matching 6 randomly chosen integers is 1/593,775.
