There are two urns ‘A’ and ‘B’ with chips in them. Urn ‘A’ has 4 red and 3 green chips whereas urn ‘B’ has 2 red and 2 blue chips. A fair die is rolled. If either a 1 or a 6 is rolled urn ‘A’ is chosen otherwise urn ‘B’ is chosen. A chip is drawn from the chosen urn, what is the probability it is red?
