Correct Answer - A
Consider the following events.
A: ball drawn is black
`E_(1):` bag I is chosen
`E_(2):` bag II is chosen
`E_(3):` bag III is chosen
Then, `P(E_(1))=(E_(2))=P(E_(3))=1/3`
`P(A//E_(1))=3/5,P(A//E_(2))=1/5,P(A//E_(3))=7/10`
Therefore, the required probability is
`P(E_(3)//A)=(P(E_(3))P(A//E_(3)))/(P(E_(1))P(A//E_(1))+P(E_(2))P(A//E_(2)))=7/15`
`" "+P(E_(3))P(A//E_(3))`
