So I have a math probablity question.
Lets say there is a pile of money that I can win. I get 15 random numbers assigned to me (i get no say in the matter) and then a number out of 100 is drawn at random. If I hit on that 15% chance I win the money.
Now lets say I get three shots. Get 15 random numbers, number gets drawn out of 100 if I win I win game stops, If i lose we do it again. Get 15 random numbers, number gets drawn out of 100 if I win I win if I lose we do it again. Get 15 random numbers, number gets drawn out of 100 if I win I win if I lose I lose.
So basically I have a 15% chance of winning three times.. what is my overall chances of winning the money?

Just some clarification:
Did it say anywhere that the 15 random numbers you draw are always going to be different?
EG you will never have a situation where you are assigned the number 6 twice in your 15 numbers.
If nothing says and you can get duplicates.
Then it doesn’t actually change much.
You’ve received numerous explanations on how to get a 15% chance in 3 tries.
Now you’re dealing with a 1% chance, 45 times.
