Domino
Match Dominoes usually come
in sets where the �highest� domino is either the �double 6� or the
�double 9�. How many dominoes are
there in each of these sets ? Choosing either of these
sets as your starting point, imagine picking out two dominoes completely at
random. The Problem : What is the
probability that these two dominoes �match� � ie the end of one matches at
least one of the ends of the other ? If we call a set of dominoes whose highest is a �double 6� a �6-pack�, can you find the probability that any two dominoes taken from an �N-pack� will match ? Open the File as a Word Document
