Mathematics Question on Probability

A bag contains N balls out of which 3 balls are white, 6 balls are green, and the remaining balls are blue. Assume that the balls are identical otherwise. Three balls are drawn randomly one after the other without replacement. For i = 1, 2, 3, let Wi, Gi and Bi denote the events that the ball drawn in the ith draw is a white ball, green ball, and blue ball, respectively. If the probability P(W1G2B3)=25NP(W_1∩G_2∩B_3)=\frac{2}{5N} and the conditional probability P(B3W1G2)=29P(B_3|W_1∩G_2)=\frac{2}{9}, then N equals ________.

Answer

The correct answer is: 11.
