first, do not attempt to re-explain the question; i already read it more than once from different books and sources.
second, do not copy and paste what you see off the internet but give an answer of your own understanding, or else leave it.
here goes:
suppose there are 3 doors, behind 1 of which is a gift you want, the other 2 are goats. you choose one, and the host reveals to you a goat from one of the 2 remaining doors.
originally, your chances of choosing a goat was 2/3, and chance of the gift, 1/3.
now, your chances of a goat is 1/2, and chance of the gift, 1/2.
why does probability change when the settings are all the same?
