- Answer
There are three video game systems: the Paystation, the WHAT, and the ZBoz2 , and none of these systems will play games for the other systems. Uncle Riemann has three nephews: Bernoulli, Galois, and Dirac. Bernoulli owns a Paystation and a WHAT, Galois owns a WHAT and a ZBoz2r, and Dirac owns a ZBoz2 and a Paystation. A store sells 4 different games for the Paystation, 6 different games for the WHAT, and 10 different games for the ZBoz2 . Uncle Riemann does not understand the difference between the systems, so he walks into the store and buys 3 random games (not necessarily distinct) and randomly hands them to his nephews. What is the probability that each nephew receives a game he can play?
