Sep 22, 2018 at 2:45 | comment | added | Win_odd Dhamnekar | Question is asking probability of at least one pair of shoes in the selected four number of shoes.So this is equal to probability of one pair of shoes and probability of two pair of shoes in the selection of four shoes out of ten pairs of shoes. I have posted exactly the same answer.So my answer is correct.Author might have forgotten to consider the probability of success and failure. | |
