The correct answer is:
$\frac{31}{48}$
The required probability $=P\left(S_1\right) \cdot P\left(P / S_1\right)+P\left(S_2\right) \cdot P\left(P / S_2\right)$
$=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{5}{8}+\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{4}{6}=\frac{31}{48}$
$=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{5}{8}+\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{4}{6}=\frac{31}{48}$
