Question 1149527: An urn contains 12 distinguishable cubes of which 5 are red and the remainder is black. If a random sample of 6 cubes is drawn without replacement, calculate the probabilities of 3 redcubes in the sample Answer by rothauserc(4718) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! There are 5 red cubes and 7 black cubes in the urn
:
Probability of drawing 3 red cubes in a random sample of 6 = (5/12) * (4/11) * (3/10) * (7/9) * (6/8) * (5/7) = 0.0189
