Question 1194856: Two urns contain 4 white and 6 black balls and 3 white and 8 black balls respectively. If one ball is drawn from each urn, find the probability that the balls drawn are of different colors?

urn 1 is 4W and 6B
urn 2 is 3W and 8B
probability WW is (4/10)(3/11)=12/110
for BB it is (6/10)(8/11)=(48/110)
The probability they are the same color is 60/110 or 6/11
The answer is the complement or 5/11.
