1. Warm-up:
For each of the following games, a random number generator is used. The random numbers are integers ranging from 1 to 20. Assume that Player Y wins if Player X does not.
Game 1: Player X wins if the number is prime
Game 2: Player X wins if the number is even
Game 3: Player X wins if the number is NOT divisible by 3
For each game:
a) Find the Probability that X wins b) Find the probability that Y wins
c) Is it a fair game?
