A bag contains 6 blue and 6 green balls. Pairs of balls are drawn without replacement until the bag is empty. The probability that each drawn pair consists of one blue and one green ball is :
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
C.
Step-by-step solution
The probability that the first pair drawn consists of one blue and one green ball is:
Since the balls are drawn without replacement, blue and green balls remain. The probability that the second pair consists of one blue and one green ball is:
Continuing this process for all pairs, the probabilities are:
The required probability is the product of these individual probabilities:
Canceling common factors in the numerator and denominator:
