A game that draws 5 digits from 1-49 from the same machine. In other words, numbers are drawn and not replaced. What is the probability of winning the jackpot by matching all 5 numbers? What is the probability of winning a major prize by matching 4 of the 5 numbers? Make the calculation assuming the first 4 values are matched and the fifth one does not. What is the probability of not matching any numbers on a ticket?
