Question 3.5
Write an expression for the likelihood of obtaining exactly 10 numbers in each of the
intervals (0, 0.1), (0.1, 0.2), …, (0.9, 1) from a computer that generates 100 random
numbers with a uniform distribution on the range (0, 1).

How to go about this question?
 
Here we need the prob. of having exactly 10 numbers in each interval and we have
f(u) =1. So each time our prob. is 0.1 Like - integrating f(u) from 0 to 0.1, from 0.1 to 0.2 and so on. Every time we get 0.1 and then take the power 10. In this way find the likelihood.
