Imagine you have m distinct baskets in which you’re throwing n number of balls at random. each throw is independent of any other throw, and every basket is equally as likely to get a ball on a throw. after the n throws, what is the probability that a given basket is empty?

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a basket, the probability of a ball to end there is (because there are m baskets).

Then, the probability of a ball to end in other basket is .

Finally, the probability of the basket to remain empty after n throws is

This last is because, given n independets events with probability p, the probability for all of them to happen is . In this case
