A-Suppose that 154 monkeys sitting at 154 keyboards pounded out one sonnet a piece, each sonnet consisting of 14 lines of 36 alphabet letters each, with each letter equally likely. What is the probability that in at least one of the sonnects, every line includes teh letters of the word "hues" and/or the letters of the words "hews"
