    "Probability"

       The question that I am faced with, and am apparently way over my head with is: given a spinner numbered 1-10 and assuming that this spinner will be spun 22 times, what is the probability that the sum of all 22 spins will be equal or greater than 100?  now that I got myself into this problem, its driving me crazy and I really want to know how to solve it. So if any one could help it would be much appreciated.  |

      I see, hopefully i might even be able to figure out a pattern with the increasing spins and extrapolate that to figure out the odds for my question.   Ill be back before the end of the week to let you know if I figure anything out, hopefully sooner. Thanks.  |

You may be curious to have a look at the old CTK Exchange archive. Please do not post there.
