$A$ shopkeeper buys a particular type of electric bulbs from three manufacturers $M_1, M_2$,and $M_3$. He buys $25 \%$ of his requirement from $M_1$,$45 \%$ from $M_2$,and $30 \%$ from $M_3$. Based on past experience,he found that $2 \%$ of type $M_3$ bulbs are defective,whereas only $1 \%$ of type $M_1$ and type $M_2$ bulbs are defective. If a bulb chosen by him at random is defective,then the probability that it was of type $M_3$ is

  • A
    $\frac{5}{13}$
  • B
    $\frac{6}{13}$
  • C
    $\frac{7}{13}$
