Question1:

Suppose there are two boxes, the 1st one contains three green and one red balls, whereas the second contains two green and two red balls. First, a box is chosen at random and then a ball is drawn randomly from that box.

a) What is the probability that the ball drawn is green?

b) If the ball drawn was green, what is the probability that the 1st box was chosen?
