`13//70`

`14//75`

D

`17//70`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Probability of drawing one green ball
`implies (x)/(14+x)=(3)/(5)`
`implies 5x=42+3x `
`implies x=2I`
`implies ` green balls = 21
In Bag B
Red balls `=(x-3)=(21-3)=18`
Green balls `=(x-9)=(21-9)=12`
Yellow balls = 6
` therefore` Required probability
`=(""^(18)C_(2))/(""^(36)C_(2))=(18xx17)/(36xx85)=(17)/(70)`
