Answer 2

Answer:

Let E

1

and E

2

be the events that the boxes I and II are chosen respectively.

⟹P(E

Let A be the event that the coin drawn is of gold.

⟹P(A∣E

P(A∣E

Probability that the other coin in the box is of gold = The probability that the gold coin is drawn from box I=P(E

∣A)

By using Bayes' theorem,

P(E

∣A)=
