Quote:First question is simple; I have four footballs, two are orange, one green and one yellow. Without looking I choose two footballs and place them underneath two Bengals jerseys.It's a trick question written by David Bell. They're all white with red stitching.
I lift one Bengals jersey and it's an orange football. What's the probability the other is also an orange football
Second question
I have four footballs; two are orange, one green and one yellow. Without looking I choose two footballs and place them underneath two Bengals jerseys.
This time I don't lift a jersey up. What's the chances that both are orange footballs.
