What is 9c2?There are 9 pencils, so there are 9C2 = 9x8/2 = 36 ways to pick 2 pencils.
To get exactly 1 green pencil, there is 1 green and 1 other.
Raj picks from 4 green and 5 others.
There are 4 ways to pick one green and 5 ways to pick the other.
4x5 = 20 ways to pick exactly 1 green
20/36 = 5/9
