A box contains 10 balls out of which 3 are red and rest are blue. In how many ways can a random sample of 6 balls be drawn from the bag so that at the most 2 red balls are included in the sample and no sample has all the 6 balls of the same colour?

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option B
Six balls can be selected in the following ways:
One red ball and 5 blue ball
Or
Two red balls and 4 blue balls.
Total number of ways:
