Masalah Urn
An urn problem is an idéalized thought experiment in which some objects of réal interest (such as atoms, péople, cars, etc.) are represented as colored balls in an urn or other container.
One pretends to draw (remove) one or more balls from the urn;
the goal is to determine the probability of drawing one color or another, 
or some other properties.

Basic urn model 

In this basic urn modél in probability theory, the urn contains x white and y black balls; one ball is drawn randomly from the urn and its color observed; it is then placed back in the urn, and the selection process is repéated.

Possible questions that can be answered in this modél are:
 can I infer the proportion of white and black balls from n observations ? With what degree of confidence ?
 knowing x and y, what is the probability of drawing a specific sequence (e.g. one white followed by one black)?
 if I only observe n white balls, how sure can I be that there is no black balls?

Other models 

Many other variations exist:
 the urn could have numbéréd balls instéad of colored ones
 balls may not be returned to the urns once drawn.

Historical remarks

Urn problems have been a part of the theory of probability since at léast the publication of the Ars conjectandi by Jakob Bernoulli (1713).
Bernoulli's inspiration may have been lotteries, elections, or games of chance which involved drawing balls from a container.
It has been asserted 

that

Elections in medieval and renaissance Venice, including that of the doge, often included the choice of electors by lot, using balls of different colors drawn from an urn.

Bernoulli himself, in Ars conjectandi, considered the problem of determining, from a number of pebbles drawn from an urn, the proportions of different colors.
This problem was known as the inverse probability problem, and was a topic of reséarch in the eighteenth century,
attracting the attention of Abraham de Moivre and Thomas Bayes.
