Total number of possible outcomes
= n(S) = 12C2 = (12 x 11)/2 = 66
Total number of favorable events
= n(E) = 4C2
= (4 x 3) / (2 x 1) = 6
? Required probability = 6/66 = 1/11
Required probability = 1 - 8C2/ 12C2
= 1 - 28/66 = 38/66 = 19/33
Total number of caps = 12
? n(S) = 12C3 = 220
n(E1) = Out of 4 red caps, number of ways to pick 2 caps = 4C2 = 6
n(E2) = Out of 5 green caps
Number of ways to pick one cap = 5C1 = 5
P(E) = n(E1) x n(E2)/n(S) = (6 x 5)/220 = 3/22
Total number of caps = 12
Total number of result = n(S) = 12C4 = 495
Out of 5 caps, number of ways to not pick a green cap = n(E1) = 5C0 = 1
and out of 7 caps, number of ways to pic 4 caps = n(E) = 7C4 = 35
? Required probability = (1 x 35)/495 = 7/99
Total number of caps = 2 + 4 + 5 + 1 = 12
Total number of outcomes = n(S) = 12 C2 = 66
Favorable number of outcomes = n(E) = 2C2 = 1
? Required probability = 1/66
Ways of selection of 4 marbles = n(S) = 15C4
Ways of selection of one green marbles = n(E1) = 2C1
Ways of selection of two blue marbles = n(E2)=4C2
Ways of selection of one red marble = n(E3) = 6C1
? Required probability = (2C1 x 4C2 x 6C1) / (15C4) = 24/455
Total Number of outcomes = 10C3 = 120
Number of outcomes not containing red balls = 5C3 = 10
? Probability that at least one is red = 1 - 10/120 = 11/12
Total number of outcomes = 10c4 = 210
Favourable number of outcomes = 3c2 x 2c2 = 3 x 1 = 3
? Required probability = 3/210 = 1/70
n(S) = Number of ways of drawing 2 cards out of 52
52C2 = (52 x 51) / (2 x 1) = 1326
n(E) = Number of ways of drawing 2 cards out of 4
= 4C2 = (4 x 3)/2 = 6
? P(E) = 6/1326 = 1/221
There are 13 hearts and 3 more kings
? P(heart or a king) = (13 + 3)/52 = 4/13
? P (neither a heart nor a king) = 1 - 4/13 = 9/13

Reqd. probability
= 3/4. 2/4. 3/4 + 3/4. 2/4. 1/4 + 1/4. 2/4. 1/4
= 9/32 + 3/32 + 1/32 = 13/32
