Robin Hood has captured three purses of money. The first purse holds two silver pieces, the second purse holds two gold pieces a
nd the third purse holds one silver piece and one gold piece. You randomly choose a purse and pull out one coin. It is a silver piece – what is the probability that the other coin in the bag is also silver?
No, the probability wouldn't be 50/50 because there are 3 silver coins in all. Like the question said, there is a purse with two silver and one with one gold and one silver, so therefore it is a 1/3 chance that the other coin you pull out is a silver coin. (/^ω^)/
