P(equal\, to\, the \, number\, of\, balls \, with \, X \, mark \, and\, Y \, mark )=P(Z=3)

                                      P(Z=3)=^6C_3.(\frac{2}{5})^2.(\frac{3}{5})^3

                                    P(Z=3)=\frac{20\times 8\times 27}{15625}

                                             P(Z=3)=\frac{864}{3125}
