Weekly Problem


The World Series is a series of games that continues until one team has won four games. The Braves and the Yankees are playing. Each team has a 1/2 probability of winning each game. Given that exactly six games are played, what is the probability that the Braves win the World Series?

Solution:
1/2.

Since both teams are equally likely to win each game, they are equally likely to win in six games. Therefore, given that the Series has six games, the Braves have a probability of 1/2 of winning the Series.
