    B 22/35 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 15/28 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 23/44 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Total balls in A vessel = 16, Total balls in b vessel = 11 A vessel = 1/2 {(8C1/16C1)} = 1/4 B vessel = 1/2 {(6C1/11C1)} = 3/11 Total Probability = 1/4 + 3/11 = 23/44
