SoLiDUS

You are leading 100 people in a survivalist situation, when suddenly your
lives are in danger and you must choose between two courses of action.

One would cause ten of the people to die and everyone else would live; the
other would have a 70% chance of saving everyone but were it to fail, then
everyone would die.

Which would you choose and why ? Explain your choice.
