Total number of balls = (2 + 3 + 2) = 7. Let S be the sample space. Then, n(S) = Number of ways of drawing 2 balls out of 7 = 7C2 ` = (7 x 6) (2 x 1) = 21. Let E = Event of drawing 2 balls, none of which is blue. n(E) = Number of ways of drawing 2 balls out of (2 + 3) balls. = 5C2 = (5 x 4) (2 x 1) = 10. P(E) = n(E) = 10 . n(S) 21
