1st
Probability of one combination (XXXYor Z)=200/430*199/429*198/428*230/427

There are 4 possible such combinations.

Hence probability of three winners from X will be = 4*200/430*199/429*198/428*230/427

B) probability all winners coming from Y = (50*49*48*47)/(430*429*428*427)

Sorry it should be (80*79*78*77)/(430*429*428*427)

This is conditional probability.

To find this obtain Probability of three winners from X and one winner from Z divided that three winners are from X

P(3X and Z) = 4*200/430*199/429*198/428*150/427
P(Three winners from X)= answer in part a

Hence P(3X and Z/3X)= 150/230=15/23
