Step-by-step explanation:
The possibility for the ball to fill the first space to be of non-red color, there are 18 possibilities as there 18 non-red balls in the bag. Lets assume that we have taken a non-red ball. Now there are 17 non-red balls left. The second space is to be filled by a non-red ball for which there are 17 possibilities since there are 17 non-red balls. Lets assume that we have taken a non-red ball and there are 16 non-red balls left. So for the last space to be filled by a non-red ball, there are 16 possibilities.
