There are three bags $X$,$Y$,and $Z$. Bag $X$ contains $5$ one-rupee coins and $4$ five-rupee coins; Bag $Y$ contains $4$ one-rupee coins and $5$ five-rupee coins; and Bag $Z$ contains $3$ one-rupee coins and $6$ five-rupee coins. $A$ bag is selected at random and a coin drawn from it at random is found to be a one-rupee coin. Then the probability that it came from bag $Y$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{4}$
  • D
    $\frac{5}{12}$
