Total numbers = 32
We are to select 7 numbers at a time. Selecting 7 numbers from a group of 32 is a combination problem. It is similar to making combination of 32 objects taken 7 at a time.

So total possible combinations of 7 numbers can be calculated as 32C7.

32C7 = 3365856

Only 1 combination can match the randomly selected combination.

So, the probability that he combination of 7 numbers will match the seven randomly selected balls =
(1)/(3365856)
