This is a statistical problem.
There is a box containing 120 pieces of paper, only one piece of paper has a letter "A", and the other 119 pieces of paper have letters "B".
Then, let 120 students choose from the 120 pieces of paper. The question is: who is the biggest beneficiary? Thanks!
Homework Answers
The biggest beneficiary is, of course, the one who is choosing the paper having letter "B" as the probability of getting paper having letter "B" is 119/120 and that of getting letter "A" is only 1/120. One thing to note here is that events are equally likely here i.e. probability of selecting a single piece of paper are equally likely so in case every student choosing one piece of paper without replacement logically no one is getting the benefit. But in case of replacement chance of choosing paper having letter "B" is very high.

The Box Problem Take an 8% x 11 sheet of paper and cut out 4 congruent squares (one from each corner) as shown below on the left. This creates a net for an open-topped box (rectangular prism) which can be folded up as shown on the right. We're going to use our box to carry as many M & M's as possible. If the side-length of each cut-out square is 1 inch, then the box created will have dimensions 1...

Problem Statement In genetics, most large animals have two copies of every gene, one from each parent. In the simplest genetic model, each of the genes takes on one of two forms, usually represented by an uppercase and lowercase letter of the same value ('A' and 'a', for example). The pair of genes typically contributes to the external qualities of the animal in one of two ways. If both genes are uppercase, they contribute in one way, while if both...
