Please solve the following Probability problem. Show all work and solve all parts that are asked:
HW 1.y.(Yutnori)
Yutnori is played by 2 (groups of) players on a gameboard with pieces thatmove around. Each player takes turns throwing yut sticks - each stick hastwo sides, round and flat, which makes the stick roll. Five combinationsare possible with yut sticks: do, gae, geol, yut and mo. A player achievinga yut or mo is allowed to roll again. Combinations and the number ofmoves they allow on the gameboard are presented in Figure 3 (flat sideup is blank and round side up is filled with x-es).
Assuming each of the 4 Yut sticks falls on both of its sides with equalprobability, what is the probability that:a) you roll a yut?b) you roll a geol ?c) you get a second roll?d) you move 6 spaces in your first turn?In reality, a typical Yut stick is designed so that the probability of flat sidefacing up is around 60%. Try to think of what the previous probabilitieswould be in this case.

HW 1.w. (Special game)The atmosphere has heated up and a fight erupted! There are n + 1players and somebody threw the first punch. Once a person is punched,they punch another person in the group at random. What are the oddsthat after m iterations:a) Nobody punches the person who started it?b) Nobody gets punched twice?Now take it up a notch: imagine the first person punched N other peopleat random, and once someone gets punched, they punch another N peoplein the group at random, and so on. Again, what are the odds that afterm iterations:a) Nobody punches the person who started it?b) Nobody gets punched twice?
