Explanation / Answer

Q 6) Total number of balls is =(3+4+3) = 10

Since 3 balls can be drawn out of 10 in 10C3 ways, the exhaustive number of cases are 10C3 = 10!/3! 7! = 120

If 2 balls of the 3 drawn balls are to be red, these two balls should be drawn out of 4 balls which can be done in 4C2 ways, and the third ball can be drawn out of the remaining 10-4 =6 balls, which can be done in 6C1 ways. Since the number of favourable cases = 4C2 X 6C1 = 36

Hence required probability = 36/120 = 0.30

Answer: Option d) 0.30
