Alloy Lottery Simulator

My assigned lottery number was A048.

All 28 lottery entrants who live/work in Somerville are represented in the first table below.

My number is shown with a blue border.

The second table displays a random disbursement of the array of entrants. Only the top four entrants drawn will be given a chance to secure a condo unit at Alloy. These are shown highlighted in yellow.

The chances of getting 1 of 4 condo units was 4 in 28, which is 14.29%
Unfortunately this equals an 85.71% chance of not getting one.

4/28 = x/100

28x = 400

28x/28 = 400/28

x = 14.29%
