Abstract
- The following article explores a fascinating mathematical problem: the probability of a cat on a 3x3 chessboard encountering a mouse and catching it. Through several solutions, this probability is calculated for a variety of board sizes. The solutions include an analysis of possible paths for cat and mouse and a general formula that shows how the probability decreases as the number of squares increases. The study also provides an interesting window into the complex interactions between mathematics and probability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
