    Given:

    6 girls

    4 boys

    Probability of 1 girl being chosen: 1/6

    Probability of 1 boy being chosen: 1/4

    Probability of another boy being chosen: 1/3

    1/6 = 0.17 x 100% = 17%

    1/4 = 0.25 x 100% = 25%

    1/3 = 0.33 x 100% = 33%

    17% + 25% + 33% = 75%

    The probability that exactly one girl and two boys will receive awards is 75%.
