Some of the best math puzzle possibilities are involved, mostly because they compete in their answers if they do not see the solution. Take Monty Hall for example. In one, you are in a game show where you have to choose three doors.
One has a car behind it; the other two have a goat behind it. You pick a door. The presenter opens a door for the rest and shows you the goat. You then asked if you want to change your selection. In addition, although many people do not like the idea, changing your choice is always the best option. With that in mind, let us look at this intriguing little tease. With the help of Dr. Tom Crawford, the University of Oxford put together a short video on the Campbell Seat Reservation Probability Puzzle.
