To solve the problem, we will calculate the probability of drawing a red ball from the second bag after transferring a ball from the first bag to the second bag. We will consider two cases based on the color of the ball drawn from the first bag. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the contents of the bags:** - First Bag (Bag 1): 6 Red Balls + 8 Black Balls = 14 Balls - Second Bag (Bag 2): 8 Red Balls + 6 Black Balls = 14 Balls ...
