A bag contains 10 blue marbles, 20 green marbles and 30 red marbles. A marble is drawn from the bag, its colour recorded and it is put back in the bag. This process is repeated 3 times. The probability that no two of the marbles drawn have the same colour is
(A) 1/36
(B) 1/6
(C) 1/4
(D) 1/3
Answer: (B)
Explanation: As number of colors is 3,Possible combinations -> 3! = 6
Probability of Blue marble: 10/60
Probability of Green marble: 20/60
Probability of Red marble: 30/60
Probability that no two of the marbles drawn have the same colour is = 6 * (10/60 * 20/60 * 30/60) = 1/6
Therefore B is the Answer
