A watermelon is 52% likely to be rotten.
An apple is 24% likely to be rotten.
So the watermelon is 2.16 times more likely to be rotten.

We don't know how much of the fruit is rotten though, it could be 99%, it could be 1%.

11.5 more likely if I did math correctly.
But I don't get it what's the catch? Is it just a MindYourDecisions reference?

Yeah, I got that too. I've forgotten almost everything from college, so I did...

========================
400 pieces of fruit

276 apples
72 oranges
52 watermelons

===============================

100 rotten pieces of fruit

52 watermelons
24 apples
24 oranges

================================

1 / (24/276) = 276/24 = 11.5

Oh plugging in numbers since the "real" numbers cancel out anyways. Clever.
It's exactly what I did but I didn't use my brain, it's easier just applying Bayes' theorem without thinking too much kek.

despite making up 13% of the fruit population watermelons make up 52% of rotten fruit... the joke writes itself

how can a rotten watermelon be more likely to be chosen than a rotten apple if the apples have half the chance to be rotten but are 5.3 times more common?

What about the 2% of fruit that are mangos that are spreading rot to the watermelons?
