  1. My Approach through random variables:

    let X is the random variable defined as:

    X = number of balls having the number on them >= 17 in three drawn.

    In the question, they have asked for at least 1 then we can place the values of X are 1,2,3;

    P(X = 1 ) = (4/20) * (16/19) * (15 / 18) = 0.14035

    P(X = 2 ) = (4/20) * (3/19) * (16 / 18) = 0.02807

    P(X = 3 ) = (4/20) * (3/19) * (2 / 18) = 0.00350

    Prob of wining bet = P(X=1) + P(X=2) + P(X=3)

    = 0.17192

    but the answer is 0.508

    For P(X=1), I think by trying to do 4C1/20C1 = 4/20 you are selecting 4 balls out of 20, which can lead to the selection of any 4 balls which may be numbered between 1-20.

    The correct approach would be as follows: For P(x=1), (Select one from 4 balls [1-4] and then select 2 from the remaining [1-16].) / (Total ways to select 3 balls out of 20.)

    Similarly for P(x=2) and P(x=3),

    Hence, Probability = 4C1∗16C2+4C2∗16C1+4C320C3=0.5084C1∗16C2+4C2∗16C1+4C320C3=0.508
