Q: What is the correct answer for CUET UG Mathematics Q33?

The correct answer is A. Total balls = 5 (black) + 3 (white) + 2 (red) = 10 balls. The draws are in succession without replacement.1. Probability that the first ball is red = (Number of red balls) / (Total balls) = 2/10.2. After drawing one red ball, 9 balls remain. Probability that the second ball is black = (Number of black balls) / (Remaining balls) = 5/9.3. After drawing one red and one black ball, 8 balls remain. Pro

FirstInTest · Accepted Answer

Total balls = 5 (black) + 3 (white) + 2 (red) = 10 balls. The draws are in succession without replacement.1. Probability that the first ball is red = (Number of red balls) / (Total balls) = 2/10.2. After drawing one red ball, 9 balls remain. Probability that the second ball is black = (Number of black balls) / (Remaining balls) = 5/9.3. After drawing one red and one black ball, 8 balls remain. Probability that the third ball is white = (Number of white balls) / (Remaining balls) = 3/8.Total probability = (2/10) * (5/9) * (3/8) = (1/5) * (5/9) * (3/8) = (1/9) * (3/8) = 3/72 = 1/24.
