Answers to Puzzle Contest #11

in #contest7 years ago (edited)

Hi Everyone,

ThumBP11Ans.jpg

I would like to congratulate @cryptobserver for being the first person to provide all the correct answers and winner of 10 SBD. I would like to congratulate the following people for also providing the correct answers.




@peggymarin @wireless07 @cygon @juanmi96

Some of the answers provided by the above participants differed slightly for Question 4 but I have considered them acceptable variations as a bet of exactly $16 could produce a draw if Jack bets on Sprinter F and wins.

Unfortunately, only the first person to provide all the correct answers wins the prize money.

I would also like to thank all other participants in the contest for their time and effort. I would normally name all participants but the list is starting to get a little long.

Question 1

Question 4

I will be starting another contest in a few days.

I am not agree with your answer for this question. You have the right, which is right and wrong. If I am wrong, please give the reason. But my explanation for this is below:

Why jack has win 13 x 99 = 1287 instead of 12 X 99 = 1188. If jack give 99 for gambling than he receive 12 times of that, not 13 times as i understand. If anybody put 1 on sprinter B than he wins 12 times not 13 times. So I think your calculation is wrong.
If you do like 12 X 99 = 1188 than you find answer 8$.
so bill have 1105 and, if he put 8 $ on B sprinter than he will get 12 x 8 = 96
so now bill have 1105 - 8 + 96 = 1193 and jack will have 1188. So bill is the winner.

Waiting for your reply.

3/1 odds mean $4 on a $1 bet because 3 times your wager + getting your $1 investment back. This is the rule in sports betting.

It means, it is understanding difference by us (who gave answer of 8$), Else OK.
:) :) :)

Are you happy with the explanations provided?

Whatever the explanation provided by others is OK. I have not experience in gambling. But as general understanding at India, what i am telling is right. It works in non authorized segment like cricket gambling here.
You are the author of the game/post. And some steemians give the example of working of gambling. So It is OK.
:) :)

Thanks for taking attention and reply.

It's our fault not understand your game question.

I am always happy with any circumferences.

I support! must be 12 х 99=1188$.
its 99$ Jack will give a bet.

Since I've just started using steemit, this means a lot to me! Thank you very much @spectrumecons for this prize and for these competitions! Good luck for everyone for the next contest! :)

You deserved it.

Question 3 Ans: 23.
I think 23.

Yes, that is why D is the odd one out.

9.4=36
36-9=27
27-4=23 ans

Yup, it should be 23.

I lost? 😭

I think You have to review no 4? probability or also known as the probability is a way to unlock the knowledge or belief of an event will prevail or have happened, For example, Sprinter b has record 12-time win and 1-time lose, it is that happened 13 attempts. it wil be give 92,307% win and it just happened 100% if it has 13/0, not 12/1.
it's not according to mathematical logic.
Your answer talking about probability not absolutely.

Thanks and sorry

92.307% *1105 = 1019,9999 ̴ 1020 , 1105-1020 = 85

See the comment at the top of the page for clarification.

How about 12-1? next time. You have to review your answer, I ever have seen that clarification.

You understand now, right.
