Answer:
10/91
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of Red balls = 4
Number of Yellow balls = 3
Number of green balls=7
Total=4+3+7=14
If we pick three balls of the same color, there are three possibilities: (All Red, All Green Or all Yellow).
Therefore:
The probability that all three balls are the same color (note that the selections are without replacement)
=P(RRR)+P(GGG)+P(YYY)
[tex]=(\frac{4}{14} \times \frac{3}{13} \times \frac{2}{12})+(\frac{3}{14} \times \frac{2}{13} \times \frac{1}{12})+(\frac{7}{14} \times \frac{6}{13} \times \frac{5}{12})\\\\=\frac{1}{91} + \frac{1}{364}+ \frac{5}{52}\\\\=\frac{10}{91}[/tex]
The probability that all three balls are the same color is 10/91.
