Question
![Suppose an urn has six balls, three red, two blue, and one yellow. On any draw from the urn, all balls
in the urn are equally likely to be drawn. Suppose that two balls are drawn, in sequence without
replacement, that is, the second ball is drawn without replacing the first ball in the urn.
What is the probability that first and second drawn balls are blue?
None of the answers are correct.
