Answer:

p(win)=0.00094

Step-by-step explanation:

-This is a factorial/combination question.

-The probability is calculated using the formula:

[tex]p=\frac{x!}{_nC_x}\\\\[/tex]

Where:

[tex]x[/tex] is the number of successful picks

[tex]n[/tex] is the total number of picks

Therefore, we calculate the probability as follows;

[tex]Pp=\frac{x!}{_nC_x}\\\\=\frac{7!}{_{34}C_7}\\\\=0.00094[/tex]

Hence, the probability of winning is 0.00094
