A bag contains 7 white, 5 black and 4 red balls. If two balls are drawn at random, find the probability that both the balls are white
उत्तर
Out of 16 balls, two balls can be drawn in 16C2 ways.
∴ Total number of elementary events = 16C2 = 120
Out of seven white balls, two white balls can be chosen in 7C2 ways.
∴ Favourable number of ways = 7C2
Hence, required probability =
