N2 - I start with random base expansions of numbers from the interval [0,1] and, more generally, vectors from [0, 1]d, which leads to random expanding transformations on the d-dimensional torus Td. As in the classical deterministic case of Besicovitch and Eggleston I find the Hausdorff dimension of random sets of numbers with given averages of occurrences of digits in these expansions, as well as of general closed sets "invariant" with respect to these random transformations, generalizing the corresponding deterministic result of Furstenberg. In place of the usual entropy which emerges (as explained in Billingsley's book) in the Besicovitch-Eggleston and Furstenberg cases, the relativised entropy of random expanding transformations comes into play in my setup. I also extend to the case of random transformations the Bowen-Ruelle formula for the Hausdorff dimension of repellers.
