Let `P(A)=frac{25}{100}, P(B)=frac{35}{100}, P(C)=frac{40}{100}`

` P(frac{D}{A})=frac{5}{100}, P(frac{D}{B})=frac{4}{100}, P(frac{D}{C})=frac{2}{100} `

Let `D` is for defective bolts

`P(D)=P(A) cdot P(frac{D}{A})+P(B) cdot P(frac{D}{B})+P(C) cdot P(frac{D}{C})`

`=frac{25}{100} cdot frac{5}{100}+frac{35}{100} cdot frac{4}{100}+frac{40}{100} cdot frac{2}{100}=0.0345`

`P(frac{A}{D})=frac{P(A) cdot P(Z)}{P(A) cdot P(frac{R}{A})+P(B) cdot P(frac{R}{B})+P(C) cdot P(mathbb{Z})}`
