Question

Clue is a board game in which you must deduce three details surrounding a murder. In the original game of Clue, the guilty person can be chosen from 6 people, and there are 6 different possible weapons and 9 possible rooms. At one point in the game, you have narrowed the possibilities down to 3 people, 3 weapons, and 6 rooms. What is the probability of making a random guess of the guilty person, murder weapon, and location from your narrowed-down choices, and the guess being correct

Answer 1

Answer:

the probability is 0.1143

Step-by-step explanation:

here are the details from the question you asked

number of people = 6

nuber of weapons = 6

number of rooms = 9

after narrowing it down to

3 people,3 weapons, and 6 rooms

= ⁶C₃ * ⁶C₃ *⁹C₆ / ²¹C₁₂

= 20 * 20 * 84 / 293930

= 33600/293930

= 0.1143

The probability of making a random guess of the person who is guilty, weapon and location from this choices that have been narrowed down and the guess being correct is 0.1143
