An urn contains 66 white and 99 black balls. Two successive draws of 44 balls are made without replacement. The probability, that the first draw gives all white balls and the second draw gives all black balls, is :

Options

  1. A5256\dfrac{5}{256}
  2. B5715\dfrac{5}{715}
  3. C3715\dfrac{3}{715}
  4. D3256\dfrac{3}{256}

Correct answer

C. 3715\dfrac{3}{715}

Step-by-step solution

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

Number of white balls =6= 6.

Number of black balls =9= 9.

Four balls are drawn at random at a time.

The probability that first draw give four white balls

C46C415=191\dfrac{C4 6}{C4 15} = \dfrac{1}{91}

The balls are not replaced.

Now, the probability that second draw give four black balls

C49C411=2155\dfrac{C4 9}{C4 11} = \dfrac{21}{55}

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

=191×2155=3715= \dfrac{1}{91} \times \dfrac{21}{55} = \dfrac{3}{715}

Hence, the required probability is 3715\dfrac{3}{715}.
