sorry yaar....i guess a/(a+b) is actually the rite answer............


look......


let Wi denote the event of getting a white ball from a random draw frm the ith bag an B for black ball..........


P(W2) = P(W1) P(W2/W1) + P(B1) P(W2/B1)


= a/(a+b)* (a+1)/(a+b+1) + b/(a+b) *a/(a+b+1)


=a/(a+b)......


same way.......


P(W3) = P(W2) P(W3/W2) + P(B2) P(W3/B2)


= a/(a+b) * (a+1)/(a+b+1) + b/(a+b)* a/(a+b+1)


again = a/(a+b).....


i guess this will keep continuing for all the values of i and is independent of ' i '..........
