3. Answer: E) Mangoes from the bag.

Number of bulbs = 10 = (8 × 7)/(24 × 23) = 7/69

Number of red colours bulb = 6 (6 – 10): Common Explanation:
Number of defective red colours bulb = 3 Total number of balls in bag S = 48
Number of other than red colours bulb = 10 – 6 = 4 Total number of balls in bag R = 0.625 × 48 = 30

Number of non defective other than red colours bulb = 4 Total number of balls in bag Q = 30/6 × 7 = 35
–1=3 Total number of balls in bag P = 35 + 10 = 45

Required probability = Total number of balls in bag T = 45/3 × 4 = 60

= 3/10 × 3/9 For Bag P:
= 1/10 Total number of balls in bag P = 45
