Two cards. Let's call them C1 and C2. Lets say that C1 is in both colors and C2 is completely silver with one side C1A and the other C1B. It definitely cannot be the third card because it has both sides golden. So you have two cards with a total of 3 silver sides. In case it's C1, then the other side is definitely golden. In case it's C2, then the side you s ...[text shortened]... /golden card. From here we can see that the chance that other side is silver is 2 out of 3.

What a selfish macaroon! That is exactly the answer that i gave. 😠

Thank you. Now let's go run another excel simulation to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that we can do the math. 😉

Then why do you say that it fails?

Sorry, I'm an idiot. I don't see why it's obvious. Please explain. I really want to learn math.

I just moved a bit faster than light and figured that the real answer actually is it's 87.82175 percent that it's blue on the other side.
