Wdym by selecting together?
Are there more details about it?

buoyant beacon
#

what are the chances of me selecting

#

Monday

#

and then tuesday

#

there are 53 mondays in the year

#

and 53 tuesdays

median snow
#

So If 1/2 is Monday and 1/10 is Tuesday, does it count?

buoyant beacon
#

yes

#

literally

#

ANY

#

day

median snow
#

Interesting

buoyant beacon
#

as long as its monday

#

and tuesday

#

selected

#

order doesnt matter

median snow
#

Chances of selecting two Mondays will be 53C2

#

It’s no doubt

buoyant beacon
#

yeah

#

i know that

#

would it be something like 53C1 + 53C1

#

cause like

#

selecting one monday

#

is

#

53C1

#

and then selecting a tuesday

#

is 53C1

#

just add them together

#

boom

#

chances of getting monday and tuesday

#

right?

#

or am i thinking about this wrong

median snow
#

yep, it seems flawless

#

And the denominator will be randomly select two days

#

366C2

#

You’re correct

buoyant beacon
#

not tryna find uh

#

decimal/percentage

#

so

#

through what i said

#

i can write down

#

there are 106 possible ways to select Monday with Tuesday

median snow
#

53*53=106?

buoyant beacon
#

i didnt multiply them by each other

median snow
#

Wait, Monday must stay before Tuesday, right?

buoyant beacon
#

i wrote

#

53CC1 + 53C1 OR in other words 53C1 * 2

buoyant beacon
#

selecting monday then tuesday

median snow
#

I see XD

buoyant beacon
#

is same as

#

tuesday then monday

median snow
#

then it’ll be 53*53

buoyant beacon
#

53*53????

#

jeez what

median snow
#

Why would it be 53+53?

buoyant beacon
#

wait why would it be 53*53

median snow
#

How many ways of selecting one A and one B?

buoyant beacon
#

3 ways to select one A

#

3 ways to select one B

median snow
#

yep

buoyant beacon
#

oh

#

oh

#

right

median snow
#

How many in total?

buoyant beacon
#

you are right

median snow
#

yesss

buoyant beacon
#

9 ways

#

ok yes

#

that makes sense

median snow
#

2809ways

#

Dismiss !

buoyant beacon
#

woohoo

#

thank you

median snow
#

Np

buoyant beacon
#

and uh one more question

median snow
#

Sure

buoyant beacon
#

this one should be easier now

#

if im selecting monday and wednesday

#

it would just be

#

53C1 * 52C1

median snow
#

yes

#

The same logic

buoyant beacon
#

yep

#

thank you

median snow
#

Any more questions?

buoyant beacon
#

not at the moment, i need to calculate all the possible outcomes for my gambling game

#

😭 gonna take ages with like 40 different outcomes but womp womp

median snow
#

Gl fam

#

Hope ya doin well
