Question

There are 1,023 M&M's in a bag. Out of 1,023 M&M's, 132 M&M's are blue, 69 are green, 68 are brown,   63 are olive, 62 are teal, 60 are navy, 56 are black, 55 are red, 54 are orange, 50 are yellow, 45 are lime, 45 are cyan, 44 are purple, 42 are magenta, 40 are gray, 40 are pink, 31 are apricot, 29 are beige, 24 are mint, and 14 are lavender. What is the probability that you pull 1 blue M&M in [...] amount of days, given that you are only allowed to pull 5 random M&M's per day, and there is no guarantee that you will pull 1 random M&M per day, assuming that you typically pull 1 to 3 random M&M's per day? Also, calculate the same probability if you pull 5 random M&M's per day.
