Question

if lana gives me 10 medals for good question out of 24 questions, what is the probability that she'll give me a medal for my 25th question if i ask 1 good question out of every 3 questions? please explain :) i don't know the answer but i just came up with the question which seems like a legit question too though :) help me out here guys

Answer 1

So probability of asking a good question is 1/3

Answer 2

yup

Answer 3

Assuming she sees this, the probability of her awarding a medal is approximately 1.00000000000 in 1.00000000000.

Answer 4

lol

Answer 5

Probability that Lana gives you a medal is 10/24 = 5/12.

Answer 6

That's how often she's awarded a medal in the past, but my amazing powers of foresight tell me it's definitely 1/1 for this one.

Answer 7

so far it's 0/1

Answer 8

LOL but oh well, lets try to figure this out before she sees it herself lol

Hm, I think (may be wrong) that the two events are independent to each other so just taking the product would give you a good answer.

Answer 21

The aforementioned powers of foresight aren't powerful enough to predict the outcomes of moderator actions, so when I said 1/1....

Answer 46

Answer 47

u give 1 good question out of 3 quests
hence in 24 quests u gave 8 good quests
but lana smhow gives u 10 medals
hence i assume she found all ur good quests good n gave u a medal for those n gave u 2 medals for 2 of the 16 bad quests n thats 2/16=1/8
hence lana will give u a medal if u gave a good quest or if she liked d bad one
so i guess the probability for givin a medal is
=1/3+1/8=11/24
