In one jar, I have two balls labelled 1 and 2 respectively. In a second jar, I have three balls labelled 0, 1 and 2 respectively

. I draw one ball from each jar, multiply the numbers on the two balls together, and then calculate three to the power of that product, e.g. if I draw 1 and 2, I calculate 3^2=9. Let’s call this number X. What is the probability that the number 1,024 is an exact multiple of X?

Step-by-step explanation:

this is a kind of trick question, actually.

with whatever we draw, we produce X values as power of 3.

to be precise, we can have only

3⁰ = 1

3¹ = 3

3² = 9

3⁴ = 81

due to the possible combinations of drawn numbers (e.g. 3 cannot be created by a multiplication of 0s, 1s and 2s).

so, mostly, these results cannot be exact factors of 1024.

1024 cannot be divided by 3, nor by 9 nor by 81.

but 1024 is a multiple of 1 (as is every number).

so, we are looking at the probability to get 0 as multiplication result of the numbers on the 2 drawn balls.

the only possibilities are

1 and 0

2 and 0

out of in total 6 (2×3) different outcomes

1 and 0

1 and 1

1 and 2

2 and 0

2 and 1

2 and 2

the probability of this "0" event is again

number of desired outcomes / number of possible outcomes = 2/6 = 1/3

Make up a story to go with the graph. You can refer to the line segments by color or number.

First, Joe started the water and it was at full force. He filled it up to 9 inches. It took him 2 minutes to get to 9 inches. Then, he stopped it for 2 minutes because his mom called him to get a bar of soap. The water level was still at 9 inches when he stopped it. Then, he put the water to come down slowly because he wasn’t sure how much more he needed. He let the water go for 2 minutes. Then, he stopped the water when it was at 12 inches of water. He sat in the bath for 5 minutes until he decided he was to cold so he hopped out. The water then drained really fast. From 12 inches to 0 inches it took the bath 3 minutes.
