Problem

Chloé chooses a real number uniformly at random from the interval $[0, 2017]$. Independently, Laurent cooses a real number uniformly at random from the interval $[0, 4034]$. What is the probability that Laurent's number is greater than Chloé's number?

$\mathrm{(A) \ }\frac{1}{2}\qquad \mathrm{(B) \ } \frac{2}{3}\qquad \mathrm{(C) \ } \frac{3}{4}\qquad \mathrm{(D) \ } \frac{5}{6}\qquad \mathrm{(E) \ }\frac{7}{8}$
