Suppose that a factory has two machines, Machine A and Machine B, both producing jPhone touch screens. Forty percent of their touch screens come from Machine A and 60% of their touch screens come from Machine B. Ten percent of the touch screens produced by Machine A are defective and five percent of the touch screens from Machine B are defective. If I randomly choose a touch screen from those produced by both machines and find that it is defective, what is the probability that it came from machine A?
