Number System
A bag contains four red, six black and seven green balls. Three balls are drawn randomly. What is the probability that the balls drawn contain exactly two red balls ?
Total balls = 4 + 6 + 7 = 17∴ n(S) = 17C1 = 680Two red balls can be selected from four red balls in 4C2 = 6 ways.and the third ball can be selected from the remaining 13 balls in 13C1 = 13 ways.∴ P (E) = 13x6/680 = 39/340
Total balls = 5 + 4 + 4 = 13∴ n(S) = 13C3 = 2862 blue balls can be selected from 4 balls in 4C2 = 6 ways and the remaining one ball is to be selected from 9 balls in 9C1 = 9 ways ∴ n(E) = 6 x 9∴ P(E) = 6 x 9/286 = 27/143
The least number to be added to the numbers to make them divisible by 9 is equal to the difference of the least multiple of 9 greater than the sum of the digits and sum of the digits.Sum of digits = 15.Nearest multiple of 9 greater than sum of digits = 18.Hence 3 has to be added.
