probability of getting white ball=7/18
probability of getting red ball without replacement =11/17
adding two
(7/18)*(11/17)
=

anuhoney: I don't think about that case
anuhoney: Sry for that
anuhoney: can u plz explain about ur answer
anuhoney: u are drawing 4 balls right
anr4u97: take a look at my answer for this question. If u hav'nt understood, then I will xplain
anuhoney: in the question he asked to draw 2 balls but u are drawing 4 balls
anuhoney: how it is possible
anr4u97: In this answer I first considered situation of drawing 1 ball from red and then one ball from green. This is one possible case. Another case is drawing 1 ball from green and then one ball from red. Either of these cases were possible. So I used "+" between 2 cases.
anr4u97: I am considering any one of the cases from available 2 cases
anuhoney: thank u
