Two boxes B1 and B2 contain 100 and 200 light bulbs, respectively. B1 has 15 defective bulbs and B2 has 5. Suppose a box is selected equally at random and one bulb is picked out. We test the bulb and it is found to be defective, what is the probability that it comes from B1. A. 0.63 B. 0.58 C. 0.77 D. 0.86

Consider three boxes containing a brand of light bulbs. Box I contains 6 bulbs of which 2 are defective, Box 2 has 1 defective and 3 functional bulbs, and Box 3 contains 3 defective and 4 functional bulbs. A box is selected at random, and a bulb drawn from it at random is found to be defective. Find the probability that the box selected was Box 2.
