"Is it bad to get the answer a different way? Will they mark that as not knowing Bayes Theorem or just correct as it is an easier way to get the answer? The way I went is to look at what happens when the factory makes 100 light bulbs. Machine A makes 60 of which 3 are faulty, Machine B makes 40 of which 1.2 are faulty. Therefore the pool of faulty lightbulbs is 3/4.2 = 5/7 from machine A and 1.2/4.2 = 3/7 from Machine B."
