20. Consider the following cartoon: Suppose that a table of random digits had instead been used to select a random six-digit number. What can be said about the possibility of obtaining the string of digits 999999 ? (A) The six-digit number 999999 would never be found on a random digits table, as it is not random. (B) The six-digit number 999999 could be obtained, as it is still more random than some six-digit numbers, like 123456. (C) If we did see six consecutive 9 's, then the next digit would probably be a 9 as well. (D) If we did see six consecutive 9's, then the next digit would have almost no chance of being a 9 . (E) Although you might be surprised to see the six-digit number 999999 , it is just as likely as any other six-digit number.
