black balls respectively. One of the urns is selected at random and a
ball is drawn from it. If the ball drawn is red, find the probability
that it is drawn from the first urn.
12. Urn A contains 2 white, 1 black and 3 red balls, urn B contains
3 white, 2 black and 4 red balls and urn C contains 4 white, 3 black
and 2 red balls. One urn is chosen at random and 2 balls are drawn
at random from the urn. If the chosen ball happens to be red and
black, what is the probability that both the balls come from urn B?
