B. There are three cookie jars in the kitchen, а blue jar, а red jar, and а green jar. The blue
jar contains 10 ginger snaps and 11 chocolate chip cookies. The red jar contains 9 ginger
snaps and 12 chocolate chip cookies. The green jar contains 10 ginger snaps and 13
chocolate chip cookies. In the middle of the night, Sam goes to the kitchen and chooses a
jar without turning on the light and gets а cookie from it. Find the probability that the
cookie came from the blue jar provided the selected cookie was chocolate chip.
