He got angered and come with a gun (having six rack) and two bullets. He put the two bullet in consecutive rack and point at me.
I pleaded for my life. Showing little mercy, he rotate the rack and fire ......... ahh....
Being lucky, i did not meet with my final fate. Now, he got cooled and gave me two options:
a) either he will use the same loaded gun to check for my fate, OR
b) he will again rotate the barrel.
I said boss please do not shot at me otherwise shot at me using option x....
Please tell me which option i should go ahead (Remember movie 21, variable change concept J).
PUZZLE's Solution:
ReplyDeleteMost of the people ask for change.
How?
(Probality)Chance of shot in second case would be : 2/6 = 0.333..
Problity of shoting in 1st case (w/o consecutive) would be 2/5 = 0.4%
So generally people will request for second option.
I will stick with first option.
Reason: Since, bullet are placed in consecutive slots, hitting with 2nd bullet is ruled out.
So, probality of hitting in this case will remain as: 1/4 = 0.25.
