For this problem, the most accurate is to use combinations
Because the order in which it was selected in the components does not matter to us, we use combinations
Then the combinations are 
n represents the amount of things you can choose and choose r from them
You need the probability that the 3 selected components at least one are defective.
That is the same as:
(1 - probability that no component of the selection is defective).
The probability that none of the 3 selected components are defective is:

Where
is the number of ways to select 3 non-defective components from 117 non-defective components and
is the number of ways to select 3 components from 120.


So:

Finally, the probability that at least one of the selected components is defective is:

P = 7.4%
With scientific notation remember this rule; if the exponent is positive, move the decimal point that many places to the right. If it is negative move it that many places to the left. What that will do is make the number larger or smaller to the correct value.
So for example, if you had to solve 1.02 x 10^4 you would move the decimal four places to the right. So you would end up with 10200.
As another example if you had to solve 1.02 x 10^-2 you would move the decimal two places to the left. That would give you .0120.
So now we are onto your problem. 2.606 x 10^7.
You would move the decimal seven places to the right, because the exponent is positive, that will make your number larger(which would make more sense if you were adding populations, right?).
That would give you 26,060,000 people living in Texas.
From there simply add the two populations together and you will have your answer!
