Ans:
Urn A: 4 white and 3 red marbles
Urn B: 2 white and 5 red marbles
Probability that a white marble is selected from Urn A=4/(4+3)=4/7
Probability that a white marble is selected from Urn B=2/(2+5)=2/7
As,both events are independent,so
Probability that the two marbles selected are white=(4/7)*(2/7)=8/49

Please help for both.
26) Box A contains 3 red & 2 white marbles, while Box B contains 1 red & 4 white marbles. A marble is chosen randomly from Box A & put into Box B. Then, a marble is chosen randomly from Box B (which contains 6 marbles). Determine the probability that a red marble is chosen from Box B. 27) In (26), determine P(red chosen from A | red chosen from B)
