Bag $A$ contains $3$ white and $5$ black balls, while bag $B$ contains $4$ white and $3$ black balls. $A$ ball is selected at random from bag $A$ and put into bag $B$. If a ball is now selected at random from bag $B$, what is the probability that this ball is white?

  • A
    $\frac{20}{64}$
  • B
    $\frac{31}{64}$
  • C
    $\frac{35}{64}$
  • D
    $\frac{32}{64}$

In answering a question on a multiple choice test,a student either knows the answer or guesses. Let $\frac{3}{4}$ be the probability that he knows the answer and $\frac{1}{4}$ be the probability that he guesses. Assuming that a student who guesses at the answer will be correct with probability $\frac{1}{4}$. What is the probability that the student knows the answer given that he answered it correctly?
