Ответ:
a.) 9/19
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of pockets = 38.
Number of red pockets = 18
Number of Black pockets = 18
Number of green pockets = 2
a.) Probability of landing in a red pocket = 18/38 = 9/19.
b.)Since the number of red pockets is not up to half of the number of total pockets, that means if you bet on the red with every spin, you will definitely not win up to to half the times, that explains why you will lose more than half the number of times you bet on the red for each spin.
