Answer:
1 / 276
Explanation:
The total Number of balls in the bag = 24
Number of red balls = 2
Assume the number of picks required = 2 and selection is performed without replacement ;
The probability of :
Choosing a red on first pick = (number of red balls / total number of balls) = 2 / 24
After first pick, red balls left = 1 ; total number of balls = 23
Choosing a red on second pick = (number of red balls / total number of balls = 1 / 23
Hence,
(2/24) * (1/23) = 2 / 552 = 1/276
