Probabilty

Copper Contributor

I'm trying to find the probability of a number being drawn from a1 to a41 cells. I'm labeling the numbers 1 that are being drawn sporadically. I'm trying to find the probability for a42 cell being drawn. (Like a lottery).  Thanks, Ann

Hello @curley1,

 

I'm afraid I need some clarification on your problem before I can provide an answer:

  • Is the cell A42 a value contained inside the range A1:A41?
  • Are the values in A1:A41 all unique? Are some duplicates?
  • Are you looking for the probability of drawing A42 after only one draw? After multiple unsuccessful draws?
