The answer is supposed to be 5/6 or 83.3% but I don't know how to get there. Help would be awesome :) When two friends, Brian and Hugh, play ping pong, Hugh wins 60% of the time and Brian wins 40% of the time. However, Hugh will win two in a row 50% of the time. If it is given that Hugh has won the first game of a match, what is the probability that he wins the second game?

That's what I thought too but apparently the answer is 83.3%?
