Final Jeopardy!
    Condiments:
    There are 2 boxes, each box
    holding 4 mustard packets
    and 4 ketchup packets.
    Without looking, you draw 1
    packet from each box. What
    are the chances that at least 1
    of the packets you draw is
    mustard?
 Final Jeopardy Answer!
There are 4 possibilities of what you might draw out
of the 2 boxes:
•1 mustard and 1 ketchup
•2 mustards
•1 ketchup and 1 mustard
•2 ketchups
In 3 of the 4 possibilities, you'll wind up with at
least 1 mustard. So the chances of picking at least
1 mustard packet are 3 in 4 or, in another phrasing,
3 to 1.
