The first digit will be from 1 to 4.  The second digit will be from 3 to 8.  Trudy's first digit is 2 and she can't remember the second digit.  If only one two digit lottery winner is drawn, and that number has a 2 for the first digit, what is the probability that Trudy will win?  I tried and got no where with this one. </SPAN>\n" );
