Ten vegetable cans, all the same size, have lost their labels. It is known that 5 contain tomatoes and 5 contain corn. If five are selected at random without replacement, what is the probability that all contain tomatoes? What is the probability that 3 or more contains tomatoes?
Contingency Table
A contingency table can be defined as the visual representation of the relationship between two or more categorical variables that can be evaluated and registered. It is a categorical version of the scatterplot, which is used to investigate the linear relationship between two variables. A contingency table is indeed a type of frequency distribution table that displays two variables at the same time.
Binomial Distribution
Binomial is an algebraic expression of the sum or the difference of two terms. Before knowing about binomial distribution, we must know about the binomial theorem.

and 5 contain corn. If five are selected at random without replacement, what is the probability that all
contain tomatoes? What is the probability that 3 or more contains tomatoes?
