A box has 6 black, 4 red, 2 white and 3 blue shirts. Find the probability of drawing 2 black shirts if they are picked randomly?
A. $$\frac{{1}}{{8}}$$
B. $$\frac{{2}}{{15}}$$
C. $$\frac{{6}}{{15}}$$
D. $$\frac{{1}}{{7}}$$
Answer: Option D
Solution(By Examveda Team)
We want 2 black shirtsThat means choose one and then choose other from remaining shirts
There are 6 black shirts
Total 15 shirts
So probability for 2 black shirts
$$\eqalign{ & = \frac{6}{{15}} \times \frac{5}{{14}} \cr & = \frac{1}{7} \cr} $$
