Question
Urn A contains 6 red , 4 white balls and urn B contains 4 red and 6 white balls. One ball is drawn from the urn A and placed in the urn B. Then one ball is drawn at random from urn B and placed in the urn A. if one ball is now drawn from the urn A, then the probability that it is found to be red is
Answer: Option A
:
A
case(i): red ball from A to B, red ball from B to A ,then red ball from A
P1=610×511×610
Case(ii): red ball from A to B, white ball from B to A, red ball from A
P2=610×611×510
Case(iii): white ball from A to B, red ball from B to A, red ball from A
P3=410×411×710
Case(iv): white ball from A to B, white ball from B to A, red ball from A
P4=410×711×610
Therefore required probability =P1+P2+P3+P4=6401100=3255
