<PRE><B>Question 1096073</B>
suppose the first two picks are blue balls and the third is a red ball, then
:
Probability(P) = 4/15 * 3/14 * 5/13 = 0.021978022 approximately 0.02
:
Suppose we pick a red ball first and then two blue balls, then
:
P = 5/15 * 4/14 * 3/13 = 0.02
:
Suppose we pick a blue ball, red ball and then another blue ball
:
P = 4/15 * 5/14 * 3/13 = 0.02
:
We see that the probability(0.02) is the same for all three cases
