- 12/13
- 11/13
- 10/15
- 1/15
Correct Option: B
Total possible ways of selecting 4 students out of 15 students = 15C4
= (15 x 14 x 13 x 12) / (1 x 2 x 3 x 4) = 1365
The no. of ways of selecting 4 students in which no students belongs to karnataka = 10C4
∴ Number of ways of selecting atleast one student from karnataka = 15C4 - 10C4 = 1155.
∴ Required probability
= 1155 / 1365 = 77 / 91 = 11 / 13
