    Directions: In each of the following questions, read the given statement and compare the given two quantities on its basis. There are 6 pink balls, 5 black balls and 4 white balls in a bag. Four balls are chosen at random.
    Quantity I. The probability of their being 2 pink and 2 .black
    Quantity II. The probability of their being 2 pink, 1 black and 1 white

    A) Quantity I > Quantity II

    B)             Quantity I < Quantity II            

    C) Quantity I > Quantity II

    D) Quantity I < Quantity II

    E) No relation between Quantity I and Quantity II      

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Total number of balls = 6 + 5 + 4 = 15 Four balls are chosen at random Then, \[n(S){{=}^{15}}{{C}_{4}}=1365\] Quantity I.\[n(E){{=}^{6}}{{C}_{2}}{{\times }^{5}}{{C}_{2}}{{\times }^{4}}{{C}_{0}}=150\] \[P(E)=\frac{150}{1365}\] Quantity II.\[n(E){{=}^{6}}{{C}_{2}}{{\times }^{5}}{{C}_{1}}{{\times }^{4}}{{C}_{1}}=300\] \[P(E)=\frac{300}{1365}\]             Hence, Quantity 1 < Quantity 11
