If the events are independent, the probability of both/all events occurring is determined by multiplying the probabilities of the individual events.
< 30 = 1-29
29/40 * (29-1)/(40-1) ≠ 9/16
Can someone check this for me? Thanks!
Directions: Two integers from 1 through 40 are chosen by a random number generator.
