# omnimath / omnimath_4414 - taskset: [omnimath](https://harnessreport.com/tasks/omnimath.md) - difficulty: hard - category: math - language: - runnable from the site: no - agent timeout: 600s ## Results by harness _none yet_ ## Instruction ``` # Mathematical Problem You have to organize a fair procedure to randomly select someone from $ n$ people so that every one of them would be chosen with the probability $ \frac{1}{n}$. You are allowed to choose two real numbers $ 0<p_1<1$ and $ 0<p_2<1$ and order two coins which satisfy the following requirement: the probability of tossing "heads" on the first coin $ p_1$ and the probability of tossing "heads" on the second coin is $ p_2$. Before starting the procedure, you are supposed to announce an upper bound on the total number of times that the two coins are going to be flipped altogether. Describe a procedure that achieves this goal under the given conditions. ## Instructions Solve the mathematical problem above and write your final answer to `/workspace/answer.txt`. **Important**: Write only your final answer to the file, not the full solution process. ### Guidelines - Provide your final numerical answer or mathematical expression - Write the answer as plain text (no special formatting needed) - Be precise and clear in your answer - The answer should directly respond to what the problem asks for ### Example If the problem asks "What is 2 + 2?", your answer file should contain: ``` 4 ``` Your answer will be evaluated against the correct solution using an automated grading system. ``` --- Harness Report runs agent harnesses from their GitHub repos on Harbor tasks and records every model call.
