$A$ letter is known to have arrived by post either from $KANPUR$ or from $ANANTPUR$. On the envelope, just two consecutive letters $AN$ are visible. The probability that the letter came from $ANANTPUR$ is:

  • A
    $7$/$10$
  • B
    $10$/$17$
  • C
    $12$/$19$

Let $U_1$ and $U_2$ be two urns such that $U_1$ contains $3$ white and $2$ red balls,and $U_2$ contains only $1$ white ball. $A$ fair coin is tossed. If it shows heads,$1$ ball is drawn at random from $U_1$ and transferred to $U_2$. If it shows tails,$2$ balls are drawn at random from $U_1$ and transferred to $U_2$. Now,$1$ ball is drawn at random from $U_2$. Given that the ball drawn from $U_2$ is white,what is the probability that the coin showed heads (in $/23$)?

There are $2$ bags each containing $3$ white and $5$ black balls and $4$ bags each containing $6$ white and $4$ black balls. If a ball drawn randomly from a bag is found to be black,then the probability that this ball is from the first set of bags is

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 :
