1st, change 15 & one third into improper fraction
Then Multiply them

The
formula , where r! is 1*2*3*...r
is the formula which gives us the total number of ways of forming groups of r objects, out of n objects.
for example, given 10 objects, there are C(10,6) ways of forming groups of 6, out of the 10 objects.
<span>The sample space S in our problem is as follows: </span>
triples selected from 5 freshmen, 4 sophomores, and 4 juniors, so that at least 1 freshman is selected.
The selection of 1 freshman can be done in 5 ways. The selection of the remaining 2 out of 4 freshmen (one is already chosen), 4 sophomores, and 4 juniors can be done in C(12, 2) many ways.
So there are in total, 5*66= 330 possible triples.
n(S)=330
The event E "selecting 2 freshmen and 1 junior" can occur in :
many ways.
so n(E)=40
P(E)=n(E)/n(S)=40/330=0.12
Answer: 0.12
