minus-squarebear@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·3 个月前Why assume there are 6 beans in a spoonful? Maybe 15 choose 8 is a more common scoop… Assume no partial beans in spoonfuls. Also assume each bean type is as likely to be “scooped”. Finally, assume an infinitely large bowl of soup.
