1/3
no wait, it's 50%
This because it excludes the red balls only box

2/3
I don't want to answer. Thanks.,

My calculations suggest that the probability is 33.33%, repeating, of course.
[code]
var boxes = [
['green', 'green'],
['green', 'red'],
['red', 'red']
];
var positiveOutcomes = 0;
var totalOutcomes = 0;
for (var i=0; i
56%
2/3
uhhhmmmm 56%???
40%

You're just testing whether it selected the box with 2 green balls, the image shows it's assumed you already selected a green ball.
var boxes = [
['green', 'green'],
['green', 'red'],
['red', 'red']
];
var positiveOutcomes = 0;
var totalOutcomes = 0;
for (var i=0; i
0.148137
nice try
It's simple, 2/3
the double green box has 2 `true' cases
java is a disgusting language and you should feel bad

Doesn't matter, I always make any ball blue
Nah. You only eliminate one box totally, but the rest of the boxes aren't equal. It's twice as likely to pick a green ball from the wholly green box, so the likelihood that the other ball is also green is also double.
0.01%
It is not that complicated.
Lmao the Israeli deleted his post
hehe
I am colorblind so I cannot see the boxes
There used to be a version with gold and silver balls which this explanation is based on but it's the same problem.
It's 2/3.
Use Bayes' theorem. Let A=1st ball is green, B=2nd ball is green, then
P(A|B)=P(B|A)P(A)/P(B)
P(A)=1/3(1+1/2), P(B)=1/3, P(A|B)=1 so
P(B|A)=(1x1/3)/(1/3(3/2))=2/3.
13% chance that it will be 50% green balls
>have 2 possible boxes
>1 has a red ball and 1 has a green ball
>1/2 of the balls are green
>1/2 is 50%
>some retard did all that math and got 2/3 instead
I fucking hate french people
With only the information that you've picked a green ball, it's twice as likely that you're taking from the two green ball box than the one with a green and a red. On average, two out of every three green balls you pick will be from the two green ball box.
50%
Either the ball is green or it isn't
The fact that there's two possibilities doesn't mean that they're equally likely
It's almost as if probabilities aren't as intuitive as you'd think they are.
