Answer:
(a+c)b OR it's already on simplified form
Step-by-step explanation:
depending upon what your instructor wants, they may want you to say it's already simplified (which happens sometimes).
HOWEVER, if you know how to factorize (which is essentially un-distributing), you could factor out the b which is common in both.

The probability that the first two votes drawn are both for candidate a is given by:
3C2/5C2 = 3/10
Having drawn two votes for candidate a on the first two draws, there are 2 votes for candidate b and one vote for candidate a remaining. The probability that a vote for candidate b will be drawn on the third draw is:
2/3.
After the first three draws, there reains one vote for candidate a and one vote for candidate b. The probability that a vote for candidate a will be drawn on the fourth draw is:
1/2.
The probability of the ordering aabab is therefore given by:
The answer is: 0.1.
