Would the solubility of AgBr(s) in a .10 M. KNO3 be smaller, larger of the same as the solubility of AgBr(s) in water. Wouldn't it be larger?

Yes, it would be larger. Do you know why? It's important that you know why.

No i don't think i'm entirly sure why its larger?

Read about the effect of ionic strength on solubility (the activity and the activity coefficient). The activity coefficient is a factor used to correct for non-ideal behavior of solutions. In connection with this, you will see reverence to the Debye-Huckel theory (or equation)(often written as the DHE for Debye-Huckel equation) and the extended Debye-Huckel equation. (often written as EDHE)
