Box 1 contains six red balls and four green balls. Box 2 contains seven red balls and three green balls. A ball is randomly selected from Box 1 and placed in box 2. Then a ball is again randomly selected from Box 2.

What is the probability that red balls are selected from both boxes?

Solution

It means both the time same colour ball are excahnged.

Prob of selecting red ball both time = (6/10) * (8/11) = 0.4364

Prob of selecting green ball both time = (4/10) * (4/11) = 0.1455

Required Prob = 0.4364 + 0.1455 = 0.5819
