Prob of selected students times prob of selecting boys times prob of selecting 3 boys
total students = 15b + 30g = 45 students

1. 10s/45t = 0.22
2. 15b/45t = 0.33
3. 3b/15b = 0.2

0.22×0.33×0.2=0.0148

In the SuperLottery, three balls are drawn (at random) from ten white balls numbered from $1$ to $10$, and one SuperBall is draw
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets start with the red ball because it is easier. You have 1/10 chances to pick the same number that is drawn randomly. Thus your base probability is .1

Now going to the white balls, you need atleast 2 numbers picked as the numbers drawn. Let's say we pick numbers 1-3. In order to win, the numbers 1 and 2, 2 and 3, 1 and 3, or 1 2 and 3 must be drawn. You can calculate the probability for each of these cases. In the case only 2 are drawn, the probability for each is 0.075. Since there are three cases that this could happen, you multiply this probability by 3, becoming 1/4. However, there is also the chance that you get all three. The probability of this is 3/10*2/9*1/8.

.225 + .1 + 0.008333  = 33.333...% or 1/3
