    MHB Probabilities involving dynamic sample space

    Here's the issue I'm running into now: if trying to add an extra percent(bonus), like an extra 10% for group C basically meaning 11 times right? But if I just add that to it then the total comes out more than 100%. How do we get around that?

    MHB Probabilities involving dynamic sample space

    Perfect thank you! now what do you do if it's not exactly linear but close? say the relationship is like this: Say group B has 3 times the tickets, but they get 3.15 times the chances instead of 3. Say group C has 10 times, but they get 11 times the chance. What do I change to adjust to that as...

    MHB Probabilities involving dynamic sample space

    Re: I originally posted this in "basic" because didn't realize this thread exists If it helps, just for the sake of the example we can change it from linear to something else. Say we have group A, group B, group C, group D and group E. ANYONE in group B has 5 times the chance of winning than...

    Re: I originally posted this in "basic" because didn't realize this thread exists Appreciate your quick response, let me try to explain this a little better. We're not talking about the chance of "winning A", but rather the chances of "A winning"(or rather, the chances of "little a's" that...

    MHB Probabilities involving dynamic sample space

    Sorry for the possible double post. I really need help with this...anyway let's assume we have chances of winning "something" anything...can be the lotto or whatever. We have A, B, C, D, E and each have a different chance of winning. We will also give them each a value, and the chance of winning...
