Question 975835: A game has 6 cards numbered 3,2,7,5,4,and 6. The cards are shuffled face down before three cards are chosen. The score is the sum of the three numbers. What is the probability that the score is a one-digit number? Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
There is only one way to choose three cards from the set described so that the sum is a one digit number, namely the 2, the 3, and the 4. But there are ways to pick 3 cards from a set of 6.
