There seems to be a large degree of correlation between those who had the biggest hardons for doing it last summer and those who have stopped giving a f**k about the continued resilience of the NHS in December/January. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll be the "we're keeping the nurses in a job" lot. Never actually heard anybody say that tbf, but we're talking about the demographic that often claims they're keeping the scaffies in a job by littering all over the place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SANTAN Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 See how Bob Marley admits that he shot the sheriff but not the deputy..? Did anybody shoot the deputy, is big Bob saying that he spared the deputy or is he saying that someone else caught that particular body and he was not to blame? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the time Luke was 5 and was very admirable of his father that drove around in a JCB, what does he think now he is grown up. Probably thinks his dad is a failure.

Alert Mongoose Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 If there are 50 numbers in a hat and you pick out the number 20 and then put it back in again are the odds that it would come out on the next pick the same as any other number? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on whether you are asking for the odds of that happening before or after picking the first ball The latter is the same as any other number (1:50), the former is 1:2,500 Edited January 6, 2021 by Todd_is_God 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odds of picking any number out of the hat is 1/50 (or 2%) for any given attempt. Each pick is independent from the others. Picking the same number twice would be 1/50 × 1/50 = (1/50)² = 1/2500 (or 0.04%). Similarly, three times would be (1/50)³ = 1/125000 (or 0.0008%) Edited January 6, 2021 by Cyclizine 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m probably being thick here. Also I’m assuming this isn’t the same for the numbers on a roulette table? Does the starting point of the spin change that?

Does the starting point of the spin change that? the chances of picking out number 20 remain 1/50 but he is explaining that picking out number 20 (1/50) followed by number 20 (1/50) is 1/2500 and if you picked out number 20 for a third successive time (assuming all balls mixed up) then that would b 1/12500....what would the chances be eh? Think of head and tails - each time the chances of correctly guessing the outcome are 1/2........but what would the chances of picking tails correctly 47 times in a row?...always a 50/50 chance of tails coming up but the odds lengthen on the same outcome multiple times in a row.
