Say:
Each flight that comes into an airport carries 100 passengers.
20% of the people on each flight will be randomly selected by a computer searched once they de-board the plane. Again, the selection is utterly arbitrary.
On each plane, there is one terrorist/child porn smuggler/drug runner/Bad Guy (it doesn't really matter). But we have no idea who that bad guy is.
What are the chances (either by odds or percentage) of the terrorist being caught?
What if there are two terrorists?
Thanks in advance. If I ever see you IRL I'll buy you a beer or a coffee or whatever your poison is. I'm not buying anyone a pint of melted gold.
