A bag contains 10 solid-colored buttons of the same shape and size:
2 red, 3 green, 1 white, and 4 black.
What is the expression that gives the probability of drawing,
at random without replacemtn, a green button on the 1st draw,
a red button on the 2nd draw, and a green marble on the 3rd draw?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If the words "button" and "marble" means the same in your post, then

this expression under the question is  P = %283%2F10%29%2A%282%2F9%29%2A%282%2F8%29 = 12%2F720 = 1%2F60.   ANSWER



If, on the contrary, these words represent different things, then the expression and the answer is  P = 0.

Solved.
