A factory has two Machines - I and II. Machine-I produced `60%` if items and Machine - II produces `40%` of the items of the total output. Further `2%` of the items produced by Machine - I are defective whereas `4%` produced by Machine - II are defective. If an item is drawn at random what is the probability that it is defective ?

A factory has two Machines-I and II. Machines- produces 25% of items and Machine-II produces 75% of the items of the total output. Further 3% of the items produced by Machine-I are defective whereas 4% produced by Machine - Il are defective. If an item is drawn at random what is the probability that it is defective?

A factory has two machines and Il Machine produces 40% of items of the output and Machine Il produces 60% of the items. Further 4% of items produced by Machine are defective and 5% produced by Machine Il are defective. An item is drawn at random. If the drawn item is defective, find the probability that it was produced by Machine II. (See the previous example, compare the questions)

A factory has two machines A and B. Machine A produces 40% of items of the output and Machine B produces 60% of the items. Further 4% of items produced by Machine A are defective and 5% produced by Machine B are defective. An item is drawn at random. If the drawn item is defective, find the probability that it was produced by Machine B.

Assume that a factory has two machines. Past records show that machine I produces 20% of the output and machine II produces 80% of the item. Further, 6% of the items produced by machine I were defective and only 1% produced by machine II was defective. If a defective is drawn at random, what is the probability that it was produced by (i) machine I (i) machine II?

A factory has two machines A and B. Past record shows that machine A produced 60% of the items of output and machine B produced 40% of the items. Further, 2% ol the items produced by machine A and 1% produced by machine B were defective. All the items are put into one stockpile and then one item is chosen at random from this and is found to be defective. What is the probability that it was produced by machine B:
