What is the total volume of the ice cream, in cubic inches?
Problem 15

positive integer divisors. One of them is chosen at random. What is the probability that it is odd?
Problem 17
A coin is biased in such a way that on each toss the probability of heads is and the probability of tails is
. The outcomes of the tosses are independent. A player has the choice of playing Game A or Game B. In Game A she tosses the coin three times and wins if all three outcomes are the same. In Game B she tosses the coin four times and wins if both the outcomes of the first and second tosses are the same and the outcomes of the third and fourth tosses are the same. How do the chances of winning Game A compare to the chances of winning Game B?
The probability of winning Game A is
less than the probability of winning Game B.
The probability of winning Game A is
less than the probability of winning Game B.
