There are ten possibilities for each number, so the probability of getting any one number is .1 or 1/10.
The probability of all events occurring (getting all three winning numbers) is found by multiplying the probability of the individual events.
Can you do that?
Numbers is a game where you bet $1 on any three-digit number from 000 to 999. If your number
comes up, you get $600.00, otherwise you lose the $1. Find your expected winnings if all numbers
are equally likely to come up.
