Given, 

No. of red marbles = 10

No. of blue marbles = 20

No. of green marbles = 30

Total number of marbles = 10 + 20 + 30 = 60

Number of ways of drawing 5 marbles from 60 marbles = ^{60}\textrm{C}_{5}

(i) .

Number of ways of drawing 5 blue marbles from 20 blue marbles = ^{20}\textrm{C}_{5}

\therefore Probability of drawing all blue marbles = \frac{^{20}\textrm{C}_{5}}{^{60}\textrm{C}_{5}}
