Smokey's Smokes (Posted on 2010-06-03) Difficulty: 1 of 5
A store sells three brands of cigarettes: $3.15 Star lights, $4.30 Vegas slims, and $5.20 Royal 100's. (Tax included) A man named Smokey walks into the store, and buys 2 packs of cigarettes, one pack for himself and the other pack for a friend. He hands the cashier a $20 note, and is returned a few bills and 3 coins in change (exclude dollars or half dollars). What's the probability, that the man smokes Royal 100's?

By "exclude dollars and half dollars", I am referring to the coins that were returned, only.  Not the bills.
