Problem 754
Daily Math Challenge - July 13, 2022
Two basketball teams are competing against each other in a best of THREE playoff series. The teams are considered equal in ability. What is the probability of Team A losing the playoff series if they lose game 1?
We are very sorry but there was a typo in Problem753 from July 12. This should be a THREE GAME SERIES as indicated in this problem (754). Unfortunately, we could not make the correction on July 12. We will make corrections to points for Problem 753 when we can make the update.
Immediately after your correct answer is submitted, your name will be posted here.
