- P(A|B)
- P(B|A)

उत्तर
(i) Now, P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∩ B)= `7/11`
⇒ P(A ∩ B) = `6/11 + 5/11 - 7/11`
`= 4/11`
(ii) `P(A|B) = (P(A ∩ B))/(P(B))`
`= (4/11)/(5/11)`
`= 4/5`
(iii) `P (B|A) = (P(A ∩ B))/(P (A))`
`= (4/11)/(6/11)`
`= 4/6`
`= 2/3`

Suppose we have four boxes. A, B, C and D containing coloured marbles as given below:
| Box | Marble colour | ||
| Red | White | Black | |
| A | 1 | 6 | 3 |
| B | 6 | 2 | 2 |

Box I contains two white and three black balls. Box II contains four white and one black balls and box III contains three white ·and four black balls. A dice having three red, two yellow and one green face, is thrown to select the box. If red face turns up, we pick up the box I, if a yellow face turns up we pick up box II, otherwise, we pick up box III. Then, we draw a ball from the selected box. If the ball is drawn is white, what is the probability that the dice had turned up with a red face?
