ball is white or ball is black
P(w) =
P(B) = 
Let E → selecting a white ball from second urn after a ball from urn first has been placed into it
P(E) = P(w) P(E/W) + P(B) P(E/B)
ball is white or ball is black
P(w) =
P(B) = Let E → selecting a white ball from second urn after a ball from urn first has been placed into it
P(E) = P(w) P(E/W) + P(B) P(E/B)
