Three balls are drawn one after the other with replacement, from a bag containing 5 red, 9white and 4 blue identical balls, What is the probability that the...

Answer Details

The probability of drawing one red ball out of 18 balls is 5/18. Similarly, the probability of drawing one white ball is 9/18 (or 1/2) and the probability of drawing one blue ball is 4/18 (or 2/9). Since we are drawing three balls, we can find the probability of getting one red, one white, and one blue by multiplying the probabilities of each event happening together. Since we are drawing with replacement, the probabilities do not change from draw to draw. Thus, the probability of getting one red, one white, and one blue is: (5/18) x (1/2) x (2/9) = 5/162 Therefore, the answer is option C: 5/162.
