Question 1196872: There are 4 white and 3 red balls in box B1, 4 red and 3 white balls in the box
B2. A coin is tossed. If coin shows head, box B1 is selected and two balls are drawn
randomly from it, otherwise Box B2 is selected and two balls are drawn randomly
from it. What is the probability that both selected balls are white? Answer by ikleyn(52788) (Show Source):

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The probability to get two white balls from box B1 is
P(B1) = = .
The probability to get two white balls from box B2 is
P(B2) = = .
The probability to get two white balls as a result of the described experiment is
+ = = = . ANSWER
