Previous person's answer: That may differ depending on how many students total there are but I my self believe that is 33.333333333% and so on. Answer
It looks like something is left out - there is not enough information to give an answer here, because we don't know how many students are in the physics department. For example, if there are 20 then all are in an ethnic minority, so all ten chosen at random will also be in an ethnic minority, and the chance that exactly 6 will be 'ethnic' is of course, zero. A possibility that would make the question easy to answer is that you just left out a percent symbol in the question - that is, that it should say, "20 % of the physics majors".
You need to edit the question. If for example there are 100 students in the department then you can either look up the rules for finding the probability or reason it out from basic principles.
If my guess is correct that the original problem said 20% where you say "20"
then you want to look up the "choose" function, your answer will involve
"10 choose 6" times a power of 0.2 and a power of 0.8. This should be a sufficient
hint to look up the correct answer.
The probability is 1.
There is only one girl out of 12 students so the probability that the girl is selected is 1/12.

The probability of picking 5+3 = 8 students is 0.1202
The probability is 10 percent.
The probability is 1.
The probability of selecting 1 female at random is 4/8 There are now 7 students, 3 of which are female so the probability of selecting another female is 3/7 The probability two randomly selected students are female is (4/8)x(3/7)= 3/14
There is only one girl out of 12 students so the probability that the girl is selected is 1/12.
Minority Online Information Service has a large database of scholarships for minorities. There is also the Fellowship listings at Yale focuses on women and minorities, If one of these doesn't have what you want then they will point you in the right direction.

Different minorities are provided with different scholarships. To promote higher studies among the minority communities, minority scholarships are envisaged. To avail it you should be qualified according to the prerequisite specified for the scholarship. The testimony for the qualification need to be submitted, you should have requested merit and less competition. Students, who are selected at this stage based on the prerequisite only need to compete for the scholarship in the final stage.

Minority students are wise to pursue scholarships for minorities. There are plenty of schools out there that have a specific focus in recruiting minority students and increasing "diversity." If you are one of these students, apply to schools like University of Michigan for promising scholarship opportunities. Schools that appreciate diversity often award large sums of money to diverse students.
