6th period - Area Model Assignment

Dan and Ella are paying $4 to play a game at the school carnival.  Ella is blindfolded.  Dan is given 7 coins to place in 2 different cups.  He is given 4 pennies and 3 gold coins (identical in size).  He randomly arranges them in the two cups in any combination he chooses.  Ella is now instructed to choose a coin randomly out of one of the cups.  If she chooses a gold coin, they win $20.  If they choose a penny, they do not win anything.  What is the probability that Ella will choose the gold coin in all possible situations ( I want a different probability for each situation)? Which combination would be BEST for Dan to choose when placing the coins in the cup? Which would be the worst?
