Q:

Find the probability that one ball is white when two balls are drawn at random from a basket that contains 9 red, 7 white and 4 black balls.

A) 18/95 B) 18/190
C) 1/2 D) 91/190
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 91/190

Explanation:

Total number of elementary events = 20C2 ways =190

 

There are 7 white balls out of which one white can be drawn in 7C1 ways and one ball from remaining 13 balls can be drawn in 13C1 ways.

 

So,favourable events = 7C1*13C1

 

Therfore,required probability = (7C1*13C1)/20C2=91/90
