(3/7)*(2/7)=(6/49) You have a 6 out of 49 probability.
217/5 = 43.4With 43 boxes, you can take care of 215 balls. After that, you have a decision to make:You have 2 balls left over. You can either slip them into your pocket and walk away, orput them into Box #44.
The probability that all balls are red is 0.50 or 50%.EXPLANATIONSuppose there are 4 boxes with 5 balls each.Box A has 2 red balls.Box B has 3 red balls.Box C has 4 red balls.Box D has 5 red balls.The probability of drawing at random 2 red balls for each box is:Box A; P(2 red balls) = (2/5)∙(1/4) = 2/20 = 1/10Box B; P(2 red balls) = (3/5)∙(2/4) = 6/20 = 3/10Box C; P(2 red balls) = (4/5)∙(3/4) = 12/20 = 6/10Box D; P(2 red balls) = (5/5)∙(4/4) = 20/20 = 10/10Now, suppose we do the drawing of 2 balls experiment 10 times on each boxgiving a total of 40 experiments. The probabilities calculated above are the"expected" results, that is; out of the 40 experiments (drawing of 2 balls), twored balls resulted:1 time came from box A3 times from box B6 times from box C10 times from box DNotice that from the 40 experiments, 20 result in 2 red balls.From here we have that when drawing 2 red balls the probability that it camefrom a box containing 2 red balls (box A), 3 red balls (box B), 4 red balls (box C)or 5 red balls is:P(A) = 1/20 = 0.05 = 5%P(B) = 3/20 = 0.15 = 15%P(C) = 6/20 = 0.30 = 30%P(D) = 10/20 = 0.50 = 50%
