\n" ); document.write( "The total number of ways of choosing 4 of the 30 tickets is 30 choose 4:

\n" ); document.write( "\"%2830%2A29%2A28%2A27%29%2F%284%2A3%2A2%2A1%29\"

\n" ); document.write( "The number of ways of choosing both the number 1 and 2 tickets and any 2 of the other 28 tickets is (2 choose 2) times (28 choose 2):

\n" ); document.write( "\"1+%2A+%28%2828%2A27%29%2F%282%2A1%29%29\"

\n" ); document.write( "The probability is then the ratio of those two numbers of ways:

\n" ); document.write( " or about 0.0138.
