    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let S be the sample space of an experiment and E is an event associated with the experiment.

    Let n (S) and n (E) denote the number of element in S and E.

    P (E) is the probability of an event E

    The number of elements on the sample space;

    n (S) = n (r) + n (b) + n (g) = 10 + 20 + 30 = 60

    Hence, the event of drawing 5chips from the box n (S) = C (60,5)

    A) probability of drawing 5chips from the box which are all blue;

    P (E) = n (E) / n (S) = 20C5 x 40C0 / 60C5 = 0.0028

    by combination method; nCr = n!/r! (n - r) !

    B) the probability of drawing the indicated chips at least 1 green;

    Application of the binomial formula comes in; nCr x p^r x q^n-r

    = P (E) = 1 - p (x <1) = 1 - po = 1 - 30C0 x 30C5 / 60C5

    = 0.9739

    C) the probability of drawing the indicated chips at most 1 red;

    P (E) = p (no red) + p (one red)

    = 10C0 x 50C5 + 10C1 x 50C4 / 60C5

    = 0.8096
