In an urn, there are 5 red balls, 5 green balls, 4 yellow balls, and 6 white balls. You are drawing balls without replacement.
a. When you draw the first ball, what is the probability that the ball will be white?
b. Let us assume that you have drawn two balls and both of them are green. What is the probability that the next ball drawn will be green?
c. Let us assume that the third ball drawn is also green like the first two balls. What is the probability that the fourth ball drawn is white?
d. Let us assume that a fourth ball is drawn, but the color is not revealed to you. What is the probability that the fifth ball drawn is white?
