Q. There are 7 red and 3 blue balls in the box. 5 balls are randomly drawn from the box. What is the probability of the event \
Calculate Total Ways: Calculate the total number of ways to draw 5 balls from the box.Total balls = 7 red + 3 blue = 10 balls.Number of ways to choose 5 balls from 10 = 10C5=252.
Calculate Favorable Outcomes: Calculate the number of favorable outcomes for drawing no more than 2 red balls.- Ways to draw 0 red balls (all blue): 3C5=0 (since we can't draw 5 balls from 3).- Ways to draw 1 red ball: 7C1×3C4=7×0=0 (can't draw 4 balls from 3).- Ways to draw 2 red balls: 7C2×3C3=21×1=21.Total favorable outcomes = 0+0+21=21.
Calculate Probability: Calculate the probability.Probability = Favorable outcomes / Total outcomes = 25221.Simplify the fraction = 121.
