An urn contains6white and9black balls. Two successive draws of4balls are made without replacement. The probability, that the first draw gives all white balls and the second draw gives all black balls, is :

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Total number of balls in the bag =6+9=15.

Number of white balls =6.

Number of black balls =9.

Four balls are drawn at random at a time.

The probability that first draw give four white balls

C46C415=191

The balls are not replaced.

Now, the probability that second draw give four black balls

C49C411=2155

The probability that the first draw give four white balls  and second draw give four black balls

=191×2155=3715

Hence, the required probability is 3715.
