A stick has a length of units. The stick is then broken at two points, chosen at random. What is the probability that all three resulting pieces are shorter than units?
I've gotten 3/5 as an answer, but that turned out to be wrong. pls halp

Uhm, it has not. It blanked out a number. It should be, what is the probability that all three resulting pieces are shorter than 3 units? All of the other ones are not for 3 units. THis one is different.
+36916 Well.... you don't KNOW this one is different as the numbers are missing....BUT the OTHER solutions will show the method....which should be enough to help solve this one ! ~ EP
