You can put this solution on YOUR website! Given n red balls and m blue balls and some containers, how would you distribute those balls among the containers such that the probability of picking a red ball is maximized, assuming that the user randomly chooses a container and then randomly picks a ball from that.
----------------
Put 1/3 of the red in each container. Put 1/3 of the blue in
each container.
