I'm not sure about my reasoning.....pls correct me if i'm wrong...... :evil:

Since it is a True/False question , a person can have 2 choices per question . so the total no: of ways to answer n questions will be 2^n


the no: of ways by which all are correct will be --> 1 way

so (1/2^n) < (1/1000)

ie. 2^n > 1000

the min value of n to satisfy the above inequality is n=10 :idea:
