    Total Number of Relays = 100

    Number of 5V relays = 60

    Number of 10V relays = 25

    Number of 15V relays = 15

    Probabilities:

    All the drawn are 5V relays = 60 / 100 = 0.6

    All the drawn are 10V relays = 25 / 100 = 0.25

    All the drawn are 15V relays = 15 / 100 = 0.15

    At least one is 10V relays = (60 / 100) x (59/99) + (25/100) x (25/99) + (15/100) (15/99) = 0.35758 + 0.06313 + 0.02273 = 0.44344 = 0.44
