Two balls can be drawn from 18 balls in 18C2 Ways, ie 153 ways. One white from 8 white balls can be drawn in 8C1 = 8 ways and one black ball from 10 black can be drawn in 10C1 = 10 ways.∴ n(S) = 153, n(E) = 8 x 10 = 80∴ P(E) = 80/153
S.P. per metre = 8200/40 = Rs. 205∴ C.P. per metre = Rs. (205 - 25) = Rs. 180∴ C.P. of 40 metre cloth= Rs. (40 x 180) = Rs. 7200∴ Gain = Rs. (8200 - 7200) = Rs. 1000
