What is the probability of choosing a random number?
There are k choices and n people. First person will choose a random number. Second person will choose a random number and will have 1\\over k probability to choose the number chosen by others. Third person will have 2\\over k probability. n -th person will have {n-1} \\over k probability.
Can a third person choose a random number?
Third person will have 2 k probability. n -th person will have n − 1 k probability. First person will choose a random number (and have k k probability). Second person will choose a random number and have k − 1 k to choose the number not chosen by others. Third person will have k − 2 k probability. n -th person will have k − n + 1 k probability.
