Math Problem Statement
Three machines I, II, and III manufacture 30%, 30%, and 40%, respectively, of the total output of certain items. Of them, 4%, 3%, and 2%, respectively are defective. One item is drawn at random from the total output and is tested. (i) What is the probability that the item is defective? (ii) If it is found to be defective, what is the probability the item was produced by machine I? (iii) Same question as in part (ii) for each one of the machines II and III
