Bingo Probabilities
Bingo Probability Statistics Analysis and Graphs
Data and Graphs for Single Board and 50 Board Games
The red line in the above graph shows the probability that a single board will score a Bingo exactly when the “Nth” number is called. The blue line shows the cumulative single-board probability that a Bingo will hit on or before the “Nth” number is called.
The same statistical data is shown in the table below. The 2nd column in the table shows the single-board probability that a "Bingo" will hit exactly when the "Nth" number is called. The 3rd column shows the cumulative single-board probability that a "Bingo" will hit on or before the "Nth" number is called.
The red line in the above graph shows the probability that at least one Bingo board will score a Bingo exactly when the “Nth” number is called in a game where 50 boards are in play. The blue line shows the cumulative 50-board probability that a Bingo will hit on or before the “Nth” number is called.
The 4th and 5th columns in the table show similar statistical data for a 50-board Bingo Game. If we look at the table below we see that when the 20th number is called in a Bingo game we get the following probabilities.
1) A single board has a 0.00488136 probability of producing a Bingo when the 20th number is called.
2) A single board has a 0.0228745 probability of producing a Bingo on or before the 20th number is called.
3) In a 50 board game there is a 0.088966 probability someone will get a Bingo when the 20th number is called.
4) In a 50 board game there is a 0.685574 probability someone will get a Bingo on or before the 20th number is called.

(Note: After line 34, the value for the last column on row "R" is equal to the quantity: 1.000 minus the sum of all values in column 4 below row "R". These results are all very close to 1.000. For example, on row 70 the result would be: .9999 etc. for 292 "9's" followed by "855692".)
