Nov 21, 2022 at 20:51 comment added RyRy the Fly Guy I don't find elaborate reimaginings of the problem like the one above particularly helpful because they don't generalize well to other probability problems. First, learn to approach these problems in a systematic way that is grounded in theory. Then, thinking out of the box and reimagining the problem is extra icining on the cake.

Nov 18, 2022 at 22:15 comment added user2661923 For this particular problem, it is tempting but non-optimal to attack this problem as if it was a problem in conditional probability. Instead, imagine that there is a row with $8$ chairs. Also imagine that in the first $4$ of the chairs, a person is seated, and in the last $4$ of the chairs, no one is sitting. Now, imagine that the deck is shuffled, and then one card is given to each chair. What is the probability that the unique card is assigned to a chair that has a human sitting in it?
