Eight rooks are placed on a chessboard at random. Ten squares on
the chessboard are marked.
What is the probability that they are all in marked places?
Homework Answers
total number of small squares = 64
No of ways 8 rooks are placed in the chess board = 64C8
No of ways 8 rooks are placed on the marked places of the chess board = 10C8
So, Desired probability = 10C8 / 64C8 = 1.016e-08

Eight rooks are placed randomly on a chess board. What is the probability that none of the rooks can capture any of the other rooks? Translation for those who are not familiar with chess: pick 8 unit squares at random from an 8 × 8 square grid. What is the probability that no two chosen squares share a row or a column? Hint. You can think of placing the rooks both with or without order, both approaches work.

4. Eight rooks are placed randomly on a chess board. What is the probability that none of the rooks can capture any of the other rooks? (In non-chess terms: Randomly pick 8 unit squares from an 8 x 8 square grid. What is the probability that no two squares share a row or a column?) Hint: How many choices do you have to place rooks in the first row? After you have made your choice, how many choices do you...

Consider a regular 8x8 chessboard, which consists of 64 squares in 8 rows and 8 columns. There are 1296 different rectangles that can be drawn on the chessboard, comprised entirely of chessboard squares. One of the rectangles is chosen at random. What is the probability that it is square shaped? Present your answer in an irreducible fraction.

Question 2: Part 1: Show that it is not possible to choose a uniform positive integer at random. (In other words, we cannot define a probability measure on the positive integers that can be considered uniform). Hint: What would be the probability of choosing a particular number? Part 2: Eight rooks are placed randomly on a chess board. What is the probability that none of the rooks can capture any of the other rooks? Translation for those unfamiliar with chess:...

In chess, the knight can move in eight directions. It can move two squares vertically followed by one square horizontally. It can also move two squares horizontally followed by one square vertically. Since the vertical motion can be up or down and the horizontal motion can be left or right, there are eight squares on a chessboard where a knight can be positioned after one move. Suppose that we have an n×n chessboard with a knight placed in one of...

Q2] (12 Marks): Eight balls, each marked with different whole number from 2 to 9, are placed in a box. Three of balls are drawn at random (with replacement) from box. i. What is the probability that the ball with the number 5 is drawn? ii. What is the probability that the three numbers on the balls drawn are odd? What is the probability of that the sum of the three numbers on the disc is odd. iv. What is...
