In a certain lottery, three white balls are drawn (at random) from ten balls numbered from 1 to 10, and one red SuperBall is drawn (at random) from ten balls numbered from 11 to 20. When you buy a ticket, you select three numbers from 1 to 10 and one number from 11 to 20. To win a super prize, the numbers on your ticket must match at least two of the white balls or must match the red SuperBall.

If you buy a ticket, what is your probability of winning a super prize?

The probability is C(7,3)*3*C(11,2)/(10*1200) = 77/160.
