Direction: Study the information carefully to answer the question that follow.
A basket contains 3 blue, 2 green and 5 red balls.

  1. If four balls are picked at random, what is the probability that two are green and two are blue ?
    1. 1/18
    2. 1/70
    3. 3/5
    4. 1/2
    5. None of the above
Correct Option: B

Total number of outcomes = 10c4 = 210
Favourable number of outcomes = 3c2 x 2c2 = 3 x 1 = 3
∴ Required probability = 3/210 = 1/70
