“Playing Games with Probability”

  From the e-Activity, determine the probability of winning your state’s lottery game.  Provide a rationale to support your determination.

• Here’s the e-Activity: Use the Internet to research the basic lottery system in your state. For example, the state of Ohio has a Pick 5 game where a customer selects 5 single-digit numbers (0-9). Each number can be selected again meaning 9-9-9-9-9 is a possible winner. I chose the state of North Carolina. Be prepared to discuss.
