Answer:

(a) 1 - (15 C 6) / (30 C 6)

(b)  (5 C 2) x (10 C 2) x (15 C 2) / (30 C 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of  nickels = 5

Number of dimes = 10

Number of quarters = 15

(a) The probability of getting 6 quarters  

= (15 C 6) / (30 C 6)

So, the probability of not getting 6 quarters = 1 - (15 C 6) / (30 C 6)

(b) Probability of getting 2 nickels , 2 dimes and 2 quarters

= (5 C 2) x (10 C 2) x (15 C 2) / (30 C 2)
