Question

18. An urn contains 3 red balls, 2 green balls and 1 yellow ball. Three balls are selected at random and without replacement from the urn. What is the probability that at least 1 color is not drawn

Answer 1

27.77%

Explanation:

The probability of not drawn a red ball is 3/6. The probability of not drawn a green ball is 4/6, and the probability of not drawn a yellow ball is 5/6. So, the probability of not drawn at least one color is the multiplication of the probabilities of each color, so (3/6)*(5/6)*(4/6) = 0.2777.
