A bag contains 7 green and 8 white balls. If two balls are drawn simultaneously, the probability that both are of the same colour is?
A. 8/15
B.2/5
C. 3/5
D. 7/15
FeedbackDrawing two balls of same color from seven green balls can be done in ⁷C₂ ways. Similarly from eight white balls two can be drawn in ⁸C₂ ways. P = ⁷C₂/¹⁵C₂ + ⁸C₂/¹⁵C₂ = 7/15
