Step by step Explanation:
In this question we have three-digit number from 000 to 999.irrespective of the number you pick,
The probability that you will win always remains 1/1000, whether you you have been playing for ten years and you didn't win or you have won thrice .
This can be explained with the situation of when you flipp coins, If you flip a fair coin for like ten times and get tails all through in a row, the chance to get that tail on the eleventh time is still 50/50
a)The probability of winning on next Tuesday and Wednesday is calculated as;
P(of winning on next Tuesday)=1/1000
P(of winning on next Wednesday)=1/1000
Then ,P(of winning on next Tuesday and Wednesday)=(1/1000)*(1/1000),
= 1/1,000,000
b) if you won on Tuesday,
P( of winning on Wednesday)= 1/1000.
c) if you didn't win on Tuesday,
P(of winning on Wednesday) = 1/1000.
