$A$ bag contains $5$ balls of unknown colours. There are equal chances that out of these five balls,there may be $0, 1, 2, 3, 4,$ or $5$ red balls. $A$ ball is taken out from the bag at random and is found to be red. The probability that it is the only red ball in the bag is

  • A
    $\frac{1}{5}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{6}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{15}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{30}$
