The shopkeeper assured him of germination probabilities of brinjal, cabbage and radish to be 25%, 35% and 40% respectively. But before he could plant the seeds, they got mixed up in the bag and he had to sow them randomly. Based upon the above information, answer the following questions : (i) Calculate the probability of a randomly chosen seed to germinate. (ii) What is the probability that it is a cabbage seed, given that the chosen seed germinates ?
