4. a) Benji and Mr. Cuddles are two panda bears participating in a series of animal behaviour tests. They each have 10 minutes to solve the maze.

Mr. Cuddles has a 70% chance of smelling the treat but when he does he can only solve the maze in 75% of the time. Neither bear will try to solve the maze unless he smells the bamboo treat. Determine which panda bear is more likely to enjoy a tasty treat on any given trial. b) Explain how you arrived at your answer.
