Those containers have been known to fall off the ship in rough water, that'd be a damn shame.

I never buy tickets, the odds are so bad it makes no sense to throw money away, but for that kind of money I may go buy a ticket or two just to say I did.

I'll pay the idiot tax.
I can't think of a better way to get a shot at almost a billion dollars, no matter how minuscule the chances of winning are.

Mega Millons winning numbers. Good luck.

Winning Numbers: Friday, October 19, 2018 15-23-53-65-70-7-x2 So on a trip somewhere Fred and I am listening to the radio a talk show and kind of interesting for mathematicians. If you play the lottery your chances of winning are say like 1 in 30 million. That is if you buy 1 ticket. Now if you buy 2 tickets what are your new odds? Calls came in from all over from Vegas to MIT in Massachusetts. So take a guess what the odds are and I will give you the answer.

The show got kind of interesting as people were calling friends all over the country arguments and math masters fighting. The chance of winning the National Lottery jackpot is 1 in 45,057,474 so they say?
The most common call in answer was buying two tickets cuts your odds in half to win. Wrong. Finally some Einstein type M.I.T. professor gave a 5 minute equation breakdown and it turns out to be so infinite as to almost not be countable. So you see you gave up but you were almost correct. |
