I get the odds of one ace is 13-1. What are the maths behind the odds of 4 aces straight out of the pack? According to Kryten (Red Dwarf) in the episode Quarantime one ace is 13-1. Two aces are 221-1,3 aces 5525-1.Finally 4 aces 270725-1. I have a problem I am trying to solve but never seem to be able to find a straight forward answer so I thought it would be best to ask a question here. In a UK greyhound race there are usually 6 dogs in each race. In a forecast picking the winner and second place there are 36 outcomes. What I am trying to figure out are the bookmakers odds of winning a forecast out of 169 races. Australians would call this bet an exacta.
Okay let's pretend that there is a ball and we are in the center of the ball and the ball that we are in is moving 5 km an hour so that we are not moving ,we are centered like a gyroscope and then surrounding this ball there is a second ball which is surrounding the first ball and this is moving 10 km an hour and then the third ball around which is moving let's say 15 kilometers an hour and then so on and so on until eventually there's a ball(surrounding the other balls)that's moving quickly but us being in the center do not recognize it because the ball that we are in is rotating at 5 km an hour and we are in the middle of this and the point of this is that rotational speed is greater than linear speed and the outer ball could be projected in a linear fashion at any speed let's say 10,000 miles an hour or anything but because we are in a series of these balls that the rotational speed is making it so we do not feel the force of the linear speed and I believe that this equation is factual and that rotational speed has more strength than linear speed and if we figure out how to correctly put enough balls that are spinning that we can travel at any linear speed and the rotational speed will prevent us from feeling the linear speed
P (an Ace AND a King) = 0 An Ace always has the word Ace on the card and a King always has the word King on the card. Regardless of their colors and whether they are hearts, diamonds, spades or clubs, an Ace and a King are always separate cards. No card has both the word Ace and King on it. So, one card cannot be both an Ace and King at the same time. If someone else has a more logical explanation, please share your understanding with the community.
