A bag contains 6 red and 4 black balls. Two balls are drawn at random without replacement. The probability that both balls are of the same colour is

  • A2/5
  • B8/15
  • C1/3
  • D7/15
Correct answer: D

Explanation

Favourable ways = C(6, 2) + C(4, 2) = 15 + 6 = 21 out of C(10, 2) = 45, so the probability is 21/45 = 7/15.
