HYPGEOMDIST

Definition/Description of Formula:

Calculates the probability of drawing a certain number of successes in a certain number of tries given a population of a certain size containing a certain number of successes, without replacement of draws.


Syntax:

HYPGEOMDIST(x, n, M, N)

  • x - The desired number of successes.
  • n - The number of permitted draws.
  • N - The total number of successes in the population.
  • M - The total size of the population


Notes 

  • BINOMDIST describes the probability of drawing a certain number of successes in a certain number of tries given a population of a certain size containing a certain number of successes, with replacement of draws.
