Question 1095711: Three people are selected at random from a group of 10 men and 15 women. Find the probability that all three of them are women. Answer by KMST(5328) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! There are possible groups of 3 people that can be formed from the 25 people available.
Of those, are made of 3 women,
