Question.

With a basic deck of playing cards, shuffled, what are the odds that 4 individuals would each cut the deck, and all 4 draw all 4 Queens in the deck? 1:52 times 4?

 

[ALEXIS_DH]

1/52*51*50*49

 

[CrabJoe StretchPants]

is the card being put back in or staying out?

 

[CrabJoe StretchPants]

if removing, probabilities for each successive draw are:

4:52
3:51
2:50
1:49

so 4x3x2x1/52x51x50x49 = 24/6,497,400=1:270,725

THEY TOLD ME THERE WOULD BE NO MATHS.

deck was cut, so all 4 queens were in the deck each time. but, all 4 individual queens were drawn.

 

[Westy]

deck was cut, so all 4 queens were in the deck each time. but, all 4 individual queens were drawn.

So pulled card is returned each time, but a unique queen pulled each time?

4!/52^4

4!/52^4

I don't know how to read that.

4!=4x3x2x1
52^4=52x52x52x52

I disliked permutations and combinations when studying them ~28 years ago. I don't come here for that nonsense

My last math class was AP Calculus in High School. The only thing I remember was sitting in the back of the class wondering wtf am I doing here, I’m going to major in art…

Yeah I mean what do you need math for if you're just going to be blending alloys with individual expansion coefficients, modulus values, all completely dependent on specific temperatures and available BTUs.....especially as those values change over time while annealing?

that wasn't a question anymore than you were yelling

The torch regulator has dials that do that shit for me. Murica gotdamit !

Well I thought you had a science degree and should know that, but then I remembered you got a degree in Georgia and it cast some doubts.

the only applyable math I ever learned was how to calculate frictional pressure loss in a fire hose over distance taking into account elevation rise or loss. In practice all you gave a shit about was the guy on the nozzle asking for more or less pressure from the pump
