There are y + 12 total balls in the bag. The probability of drawing a blue one is is 12/(y + 12), and the probability of drawing a yellow one is y/(y + 12). We're told that the probability of drawing a blue ball is less than 2/5, so

\dfrac{12}{y+12}

which tells us there must be at least 19 yellow balls in the bag.

Answer:

d = 8/9

d = 89

So, d = 8/9.
