Question

A basket contains 8 Red and 6 Pink toys. There is another basket which contains 7 Red and 8 Pink toys. One toy is to drawn from either of the two baskets. What is the probability of drawing a Pink toys

Answer 1

Probablity of picking toy from first basket = $\frac{1}{2}$

Probablity of picking pink toy from first basket = $\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{6}{14}$

Similarly ,Probablity of picking pink toy from second basket = $\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{8}{15}$

Probablity of picking pink toy = $\frac{3}{14}+\frac{4}{15}=\frac{101}{210}$
