About the monkey question, it can be solved by using binomial distribution and summing probabilities which form a geometric series. Alternatively you can put values of k, and look for the answer that makes sense. Couple of them were absurd and could be ruled out at sight.

Probability it reaches k= Probability it reaches in 1jump, plus probability it reaches in two jumps and so on. Individually these are going to be bionomial.
