minus-square@anolemmi@lemmi.sociallinkfedilink39•9 months agoJust got two Powerball tix for tonight, thanks! Since one ticket is 50%, two should basically guarantee I win! Gonna go kick my boss in the balls and walk out, should be fine, right? Probably.
minus-square@Gigan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink17•9 months agotwo tickets actually lowers your odds 50% x 50% = 25%
minus-square@NorthWestWind@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink5•9 months agoThat’s the odds to win both. Op need one of them only.
minus-square@surewhynotlem@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink1•8 months agoThat’s why you should add instead of multiply. 0.5 + 0.5 = 0.10 So the odds are even worse
