[Math] Determine the probability that 1 of the 4 tickets bought is the winning ticket

probability

One hundred tickets are sold for a raffle at a dance, and three are drawn randomly to win a prize. Determine the probability that 1 in 4 of these tickets that Jason bought is one of these winning tickets

I'm having trouble with this question, can someone please just push me in the direction to help me find the answer?

Best Answer

There are $\binom31\binom{97}3$ ways Jason could have exactly $1$ winning and $3$ non-winning tickets.

Against this, Jason could have got any $4$ tickets in $\binom{100}{4}$ combos.

Thus $Pr = \dfrac{\binom31\binom{97}{3}}{\binom{100}4}$
