1.A well-shuffled ordinary deck of 52 cards is divided randomly into four piles of 13 each.
Counting jack, queen, and king as 11, 12, and 13, respectively, we say that a match occurs in a pile if the jth card is j.
What is the expected value of the total number of matches in all four piles?


2.Condsider a slot machine in a casino which is contructed with a lever and four rotating wheels.
On each wheel, pictures of an apple, a banana, a cherry, an orange, a pear and a grape are drawn.
By pulling the lever, a player can cause the wheels to turn.
The player can see the outcomes of each turning through the display revealing the pictures on the respective wheels.
