A committee of 3 people is to be chosen from a group of 4 men and 3 women. What is the probability that the committee will consist of exactly 2 men and 1 woman?
✓ Correct Answer: Option D
Total ways to choose 3 from 7 is C(7,3) = 35. Ways to choose 2 men from 4 is C(4,2) = 6. Ways to choose 1 woman from 3 is C(3,1) = 3. Favorable ways = 6 * 3 = 18. Probability = 18/35.
