A box contains 4 white, 5 red and 6 black balls. Two balls are drawn at random. If both are black, what is the probability? About the author Eden
Total number of balls= 15 ways of drawing 2 balls= ¹⁵C2 Number of black balls= 6 ways of choosing black balls= ⁴C2 P= ⁴C2/¹⁵C2= (4×3/2)/(15×14/2)= 6/105 Reply
The probability is
=31/153
Total number of balls= 15
ways of drawing 2 balls= ¹⁵C2
Number of black balls= 6
ways of choosing black balls= ⁴C2
P= ⁴C2/¹⁵C2= (4×3/2)/(15×14/2)= 6/105
