Starting at about 2:20 in the video I show the odds of getting all six correct and there is only one combination then that is 1 out of You need to figure how many different ways can you pick 5 numbers out of 6. I just added a link to a video on permutations and combinations in the video description of this video. You will use combinations picking 5 out of 6 in the video I am use N = 5 and n=3. You need to use N = 6 and n = 5. Make sense? Good luck!

Good to know that my video was just in time and your brain did not explode! Make sure you like MyBookSucks on FaceBook (see link in video description). This will help others find the educational videos.

Your videos are great. Just the right amount of time in order to provide the audience with a clear understanding and effective results.

Thank you for your help.Now I understand Probability,Combination,Permutations.We need more people like you.

Ah! you are so sweet. Thanks... Make sure you like and give me some love on MyBookSucks on FaceBook (see link in video description). This will help others find the educational videos.

Interesting insight. You are correct if the order of the numbers make a difference. The problem does change if order matters. Thanks for sharing your ideas.

Yeah! Thank you.

Thanks for this great video. I wonder how I can calculate the chances for having 5 right numbers og 4 right number? Can you help me with that?

i love your content. very interesting to see the probability of winning is so slim and we just hope and pray that 2-3 tickets will be the winning numbers. its pure luck.

It was good looking at your video for the first time. I have a question do this formula work with 3 and 4 numbers as well?

What program do you use for your graphics? It is so awesome! I learn better when I see concepts visually and I just really appreciate the way you teach.

The way you teach is astounding... question: how to calculate and list those possible ways in excel?

Sir, is there any possibility to create a lotto generator with a group of six numbers each number input selected or range of numbers to generated possibly combination. Pls reply thank you.

A factorial is just a symbol used in mathematics. It is the ! or exclamation mark. If I had 4!, then I would multiply 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 or if I had 6! I would multiply 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

Good explanation. I am struggling with the concept of calculating and comparing probability of winning if there is one prize every four tickets eg How do we compare the situation if there are 10 prizes in total of 40 tickets OR 1000 prizes in total of 4000 tickets. Look forward for guidance.

That was very understanding but how did the numbers you choose play a role in the jackpot?

very nice step by step. thank you! could you now please do a walk through probability of having 5 of those 6 numbers out of 49 correct? and 4,3,2,1,0 of the 6 out of 49 correct? thanks

Very nicely explained Thank you-- curious to know what odds increase when you have to get 6 from 49 but can select 7 numbers?

Buenas noches mi estimado y estoy viendo recién el video muchas gracias y bendiciones para todos los professional y bendiciones

To put it simply I want to know how to calculate the odds of winning when you have to pick combination of two 2 digit numbers (from 0 to 99) like 01 78, 88 76, 13 13 etc..here repetition is allowed...im not good at math so im having grasping this "order" thing . Here the order matters cuz 88 76 and 76 88 are two distinct (say winning number combinations) but the order won't matter for number combination with same digits such as 00 00, 66 66 etc.. so how do I remove the combinations of numbers like that and calculate the exact odds and probability of winning??

I thought I was the 'Perfect One' until I met your content!

Hi, what if you choose 7 out of 49? Or 12 out of 49? What are the permutation and combinations? What will be the probability? Is it higher or lower in term of chances of winning? Can show me the calculation & answers? I wonder.

What are the odds if you pick 6 numbers in the 20's that is all starting with the number '2'. How does this increase the odds against you winning?

Do you have a method allowing me to find the future lottery numbers from the numbers already released?

This video was super helpful. I know the video is 10 years old, but what if the lottery allows for repetition in the numbers, ie: you can choose the same number up to 6 times: 000000. What would be the formula for that?

how do you calculate odds of getting 3 of 5 right or 2 of 5 right on a lottery of N numbers to win the lower prizes?So odds of K right when picking R of N

Hey can you tell me the formula on how to calculate the odds of winning when the combination n = 2 and total number N = 100 . ( E.g 23 56) but when repetition of digits are allowed. ,eg 00 00, 01 01, 76 76, 88 88 can happen

How many times did you win lottery

I have a question/dilemma about a math problem for you math experts: There's a sports lottery game where there's 14 football matches (each match can end in 3 ways, the local team wins=1, there's a draw=X, or the visiting team wins=2). Let's say for instance I have to guess 10 of those matches (1, X or 2). What are the chances of randomly guessing any of those 10 matches out of 14? I looked on various sites and they used the formula ''3 to the power of 10'' resulting in 1 in 59049 chance but it's incorrect and it's a ridiculously large number too, they calculated the chances assuming there's 10 matches in total and not 14. How can I calculate step by step the correct chances of guessing 10 out of 14 matches?

What is the resul

Nice video Statisticsfun!.The problem is correct when we use combination, the formula is the correct one, and that give us the 1/13,983,816 odds to win the lottery. But I have one doubt, I tried to look the problem in a more practical way, and I believe that we need to use the permutation formula to solve this problem, because lets say that the winner number is: 123456, but if you have the ticket 654321, you are not the winner, but with combinations both numbers are the same. What do you think?.

Hi. Can someone please help. Let's say you chose 2 numbers from 6 balls. When I use your formula for e.g. P (3,2), I get 1:15, when I write out all the possible combinations I get 1:36. Also when I write out the numbers without repeating numbers I get 1:21.
