A die is thrown, find the probability of following events: A number less than or equal to one will appear,
The sample space of the given experiment is given by
$S=\{1,2,3,4,5,6\}$
Let $C$ be the event of the occurrence of a number less than or equal to one.
Accordingly, $C\{1\}$
$\therefore P(C)=\frac{\text { Number of outcomes favourable to } C}{\text { Total number of possible outcomes }}=\frac{n(C)}{n(S)}=\frac{1}{6}$

A box contains $2$ black, $4$ white and $3$ red balls. One ball is drawn at random from the box and kept aside. From the remaining balls in the box, another ball is drawn at random and kept aside the first. This process is repeated till all the balls are drawn from the box. The probability that the balls drawn are in the sequence of $2$ black, $4$ white and $3$ red is
