Question 542738
What is the probability that you and a friend both solve the same five problems? 
The test has 6 questions, you are required to answer 3 given questions but can pick the other two questions from a pool of 3 questions.
-----
There are 3C2 = 3 sets of 2 questions
One of them is the same as your friends choice of 2.
P(choose same set of 2) = 1/3
