Suppose that you watch the game show over many years and find that door #1 hides the car 50% of the time, door #2 has the car 40% of the time, and door #3 has the car 10% of the time. What then is your optimal strategy? In other words, which door should you pick initially, and then should you stay or switch? What is your probability of winning with the optimal strategy? Explain.
