What is the probability that you are either a Winner or a Booby
Prize Winner?
Permutation formula: nPr = n!/(n-r)!
Combination formula: nCr = n!/(r! x (n-r)!)
P(being a Booby prize winner) = 1/(Number of permutations of 4 numbers from 40 - Number of combinations of 4 numbers from 40)
= 1/(40P4 - 40C4)
= 1/(2,193,360 - 91,390)
= 1/2,101,970
P(either a Winner or a Booby Prize Winner) = 1/Number of combinations of 4 numbers from 40
= 1/40C4
= 1/91,390
