one doubt please clarify it. white balls are added till all black balls removed. in the last chance once the last balls are removed what is the need of adding white balls. i think the answer is 496.

TOTAL NO OF BLACK BALLS = 315
NO OF TIMES THAT THE BOY TAKES OUT YHE BLACK BALL = 315 ÷ 5 = 63
NOW,
HE TAKES OUT 5 BLACK BALLS AND ADD 8 WHITE BALLS IT MEANS THAT IN EACH REPLACEMENT THERE ARE 3 MORE BALLS ADDED.
NOW,
NO OF EXTRA WHITE BALLS = 3 × 63 = 189
TOTAL NO OF BALLS IN THE BASKET = 189 + 315 = 504 BALLS
