$20$ red and $10$ blue balls.

$20$ red and $10$ blue balls.

As the drawing is random each ball is equally likely to be dawn last.

If the last ball is blue, then all the red balls have been drawn before all the blue ones.

If all the red balls have been drawn before all the blue ones then the last ball drawn is blue.

The wanted event is equivalent to the last drawn ball being blue, and as each of the balls is equally likely to be drawn last:

The probability that all of the red balls are removed before all of the blue ones have been removed is $\frac{1}{3}$.

$20$ red, $10$ blue and $8$ green balls.

$20$ red, $10$ blue and $8$ green balls.

Each permutation of only red and blue balls is equally likely. Because every permutation of all the balls is equally likely, and there is an equal number of such permutations for a fixed order of red and blue balls.

Since the wanted event only regards the red and the blue balls, this problem is equivalent to part a)

$P\left(\text{the last drawn from red and blue balls is blue}\right)=\frac{10}{30}=\frac{1}{3}$

The probability of$P\left(\text{the last drawn from red and blue balls is blue}\right)=\frac{1}{3}$.

The probability that the green is the last color to disappear is equal to the probability that the last ball drawn is green:

Given that, the order is blue, red, green if and only if all the blue balls are drawn before all the red ones. And from part b), this is:

$P\left(\text{the last drawn from red and blue balls is blue}\right)=\frac{10}{30}=\frac{1}{3}$

Multiplying these numbers we get the probability of the intersection by formula:

Thus

$P(alltheredballsaredrawnbeforeallblueonesandthelastdrawnballisgreen)=\frac{4}{19}*\frac{1}{3}$

And that intersection is the wanted event, so the solution is:

The probability of$P\left(\text{order is blue, red, green}\right)=P\left(BRG\right)=\frac{4}{57}$.

$P(BRG)=\frac{4}{57}$, $P(BGR)=?$

$P\left(\text{blue balls are exhausted first}\right)=\frac{4}{57}+\frac{50}{171}=\frac{62}{171}≈36.26\%$.

The probability of $P\left(\text{blue balls are exhausted first}\right)=\frac{62}{171}$.
