(a) (8%) compute the probability of an even integer among the 100 integers 1! , 2! , 3! , until 100! (here n! is n factorial or n*(n-1)*(n-2) *… 1) (b) (16%) compute the probability of an even integer among the 100 integers: 1, 1+2, 1+2+3, 1+2+3+4, …., 1+2+3+… + 99, and 1+2+3+… + 100

(a)  99%

(b)  50%

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) All factorials after 1! have 2 as a factor, so are even. Thus 99 of the 100 factorials are even, for a probability of 99%.

(b) The first two sums are odd; the next two sums are even. The pattern repeats every four sums. There are 25 repeats of that pattern in 100 sums, so 2/4 = 50% of sums are even.

36/60

36/2=18

60/2=30

18/30

18/3=6

30/3=10

6/10

6/2=3

10/2=5

your final answer would be 3/5 of an

hope this !
