MCQ
Two balls are selected at random one by one without replacement from a bag containing 4 white and 6 black balls. If the probability that the first selected ball is black, given that the second selected ball is also black, is $\frac{ m }{ n }$, where $\operatorname{gcd}( m , n )=1$, then $m + n$ is equal to :
  • 14
  • B
    4
  • C
    11
  • D
    13

Answer

Correct option: A.
14
(A) 14
$
\begin{array}{l}
Sol.P=\frac{\frac{6}{10} \times \frac{5}{9}}{\frac{4}{10} \times \frac{6}{9}+\frac{6}{10} \times \frac{5}{9}}=\frac{5}{9} \\
m=5, n=9 \\
m+n=14
\end{array}
