Answer:

therefore, 3 black balls...

Step-by-step explanation:

Total total number of balls =12

Total number of black balls = x

p (getting getting a black ball)=x/12

if 6 more black balls are put in the box , then

Total number of balls=12+6= 18

total number of black balls=x+6

p(getting a black balls)=x+6/18

ATQ

2(x/12)=(x+6/18)

3x=x+6

2x=6x=3
