Number System
A box contains 5 red, 4 black and 4 blue balls. If 3 balls are drawn randomly from the box, what is the probability that there are exactly 2 blue balls in the three drawn balls ?
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
Let the middle digit be x. Then, 2x = 10 or x = 5.So, the number is either 253 or 352. Since the number increases on reversing the digits, so the hundred's digit is smaller than the unit's digit. Hence, required number = 253.
A total of (7 + 3) persons = 10 personal can sit in 10! ways.If we consider three girls as one unit, total persons = 7 + = 8 (here all three girls sit together).No. of ways = 81 and the three girls can be arranged in 31 ways among themselves.So, the total number of ways when three girls sit together = 81 x 31When the girls don't sit together, number of ways = 101 - (81 x 31) = 81 (10 x 9 - 6) = 81 x 84 = 3386880
