문제

A red ball and a green ball are randomly and independently tossed into bins numbered with the positive integers so that for each ball, the probability that it is tossed into bin kk is 2k2^{-k} for k=1,2,3....k = 1,2,3.... What is the probability that the red ball is tossed into a higher-numbered bin than the green ball?
