Solution

(b) At least one green ball can be selected out of $5$ green balls in ${2^5} – 1$

$i.e.$, in $31$ ways. Similarly at least one blue ball can be selected from $4$ blue balls in ${2^4} – 1 = 15$ ways. .

And at least one red or not red can be select in $2^3=8$ ways.

Hence required number of ways = $31 \times 15 \times 8 = 3720$.
