(d) Let $R$ stand for drawing red ball $B$ for drawing black ball and $W$ for drawing white ball.

Then required probability

$ = P(WWR) + P(BBR) + P(WBR) + P(BWR) + P(WRR) + $

$P(BRR) + P(RWR) + P(RBR).$

$ = \frac{{3.2.2}}{{8.7.6}} + \frac{{3.2.2}}{{8.7.6}} + \frac{{3.3.2}}{{8.7.6}} + \frac{{3.3.2}}{{8.7.6}} + \frac{{3.2.1}}{{8.7.6}}$

$ + \frac{{3.2.1}}{{8.7.6}} + \frac{{2.3.1}}{{8.7.6}} + \frac{{2.3.1}}{{8.7.6}}$

$ = \frac{2}{{56}} + \frac{2}{{56}} + \frac{3}{{56}} + \frac{3}{{56}} + \frac{1}{{56}} + \frac{1}{{56}} + \frac{1}{{56}} + \frac{1}{{56}} = \frac{1}{4}$.
