Actually, re-reading your question ""Is it in your best interest" I would have to say it is in your best interest to swap.
But you wouldn't know that.

Not me. I would stay with the door I chose originally, rather than "gamble".Raven wrote:Can anybody provide an explanation as to why it is in your best interest to swap?

Nope. The chances are relevant to the original 3 doors.Super Nova wrote:No, after the first door is open your chances go from 33% to 50%.IQS.RLOW wrote:After the 1st door is opened your chances of winning the car go from 33% to 66%Raven wrote:Can anybody provide an explanation as to why it is in your best interest to swap?
50% would be if there were only 2 doors to begin with.
Schrodingers car (or doors, if you will).

I think ... now you've gotten me confused. LOL
ch = 5
a = 4
Hence .....
15 + 5 x 4 = 15 + (5×4)
= 15 + 20

now I am confused since when did 15 + 5 = 15......to me it comes to 20....20x4 = 80.

I have four wings, but cannot fly,
I never laugh and never cry;
On the same spot I'm always found,
toiling away with little sound.
What am I?
