6R, 6W, 10B sum to 22 marbles
draw 3 without replacement
a) P(3R) = 6/22 x 5/21 x 4/20 = 3/11 x 5/21 x 1/5 = 15/1155 = 1.2987% chance of 3 reds
c) P(R=0) 16/22 x 15/21 x 14/20 = 8/11 x 5/7 x 7/10 = 4/11 36.3636% = chance of no reds
b) P(2R 1N) = P(RRN) + P(RNR) + P(NRR)
= (6/22)(5/21)(16/20) + (6/22(16/21)(5/20) + (16/22)(6/21)(5/20)
= 3/11)(5/21)(4/5) + 3/11)(16/21)(1/4) + 8/11)(2/7)(1/4)
= 60/1155 + 48/924 + 16/308
=240/5(11)(7)(3)(4)(5) + 48)(3)/(5)/11)(7)3)4(5) + 16(5))6)/(11)(7)(3)(4)(5)

too many tedious calculations to avoid errors in less than 3 hours
= chance of exactly 2 reds in 3 draws without replacement
