Question

Help please

Answer 1

first use the random numbers to generate the first 5 unique digits

let me know what you get

Answer 2

what do you mean can you explain further please :(

Answer 3

each digit represents one student

read off the first digit
then read off the next digit

keep going until you have 5 unique digits

Answer 4

12024

Answer 5

the digits must be unique

Answer 6

no repeats

Answer 7

61475

Answer 8

no, go back to the begininng

Answer 9

12024

discard the second 2 and move to the next digit

so you get 12045

make sense?

Answer 10

Yes A little bit

Answer 11

now, starting where the first segment left off, generate 5 new unique digits

Answer 12

58976?

Answer 13

where are you getting 8 from

Answer 14

didn't you say that you get the number from the next unique

Answer 15

next sequentially, not numerically

Answer 16

we have 59766

we get rid of the duplicate 6

then we go to the next digit (the next one in the problem)

it's a 1

so our next digits are 59761

make sense?

Answer 17

yes

Answer 18

keep going with the next 5 digits

Answer 19

70526

Answer 20

62179

Answer 21

71804

Answer 22

right?

Answer 23

after the 1 the next digit should be a 4

Answer 24

47570

remove the duplicate 7's

475

now we use the next 2 available digits

Answer 25

72

the 7 is a duplicate from what we had before

so we go to the next digit

which is a 6

Answer 26

so we get 47526

Answer 27

this brings us right to the 5th segment (starting with 254)

generate the next 5 digits

Answer 28

still there?

Answer 29

Yes I am here trying to understand

Answer 30

Yes I see

Answer 31

I need to start heading home now so let me type out the rest of the instructions

Answer 32

once you have finished generating the digits (use up all the available numbers), observe each set of numbers and see how many of the groups have 3 or more digits that are 1-5) and divide that by the total number of groups you obtained

Answer 33

4 numbers have 3 or more digits that are 1-5

Answer 34

Is the answer 46%

Answer 35

@Vocaloid

Answer 36

@Vocaloid

Answer 37

how many total sets of 5 digits did you get

Answer 38

12024 : 4 - 1224 
55976 : 2 - 55 
61475 : 3 - 145 
70726 : 1 - 2 
25408 : 3 - 254 
62279 : 2 - 22 
71874 : 2 - 14 
03499 : 2 - 34 
92659 : 2 - 25 
26041 : 3 - 241 

Answer 39

again, for each cluster of digits there should be NO duplicates

Answer 40

4?

Answer 41

re-generate the clusters such that there are NO duplicates in each cluster

each set of digits should have 5 unique digits (NO duplicates)

Answer 42

OKay let me write it all out on scrap paper hold on a sec

Answer 43

@sillybilly123 do you know if I'm interpreting this problem correctly? I am treating each digit as 10% of the population (mutually exclusive with each other) so each digit within each of the 5 clusters must be unique

Answer 44

when you say we use the next two available digits after removing the duplicate, do you mean in the next number or the current number?

Answer 45

what do you mean?

Answer 46

@sillybilly123 but if we allow duplicates it just ends up being 40% seems closer to what they want

Answer 47

and then we would divide right?

Answer 48

I end up getting 6/8 (not sure if this is right)

Answer 49

I would probably just use your method

Answer 50

OKay so just to go over this I would start from the beginning and the first number 12024 does have a duplicate. it has 2. So I would emit the second 2 and get 5?

Answer 51

right but I don't think my interpretation was correct

Answer 52

just use the clusters given in the problem and forget about the duplicate removing

Answer 53

SO just forget about the removing and focus on the original numbers given

Answer 54

right (sorry if that was misleading)

Answer 55

I end up getting 4 out of 10 clusters so 40%

Answer 56

Yeah okay thanks

Answer 57

No its okay sometimes it is confusing

Answer 58

I appreciate all your help always
