Problem 15
In a precision bombing attack, there is a \(50 \%\) chance that any one bomb will strike the target. Two direct hits are required to destroy the target completely. The number of bombs which should be dropped to give a \(99 \%\) chance or better of completely destroying the target can be a. 12 b. 11 c. 10 d. 13
Problem 48
In a game called "odd man out" \(m(m>2)\) persons toss a coin to determine who will buy refreshments for the entire group.

The probability that there is a loser in any game is a. \(1 / 2 m\) b. \(m / 2=-1\) c. \(2 / m\) d. none of these
Problem 71
