The probability that all 3 books would be nonfiction is 0.1846.

What is the probability?

Probability determines the chances that an event would happen. The probability the event occurs is 1 and the probability that the event does not occur is 0.

The probability that all 3 books would be nonfiction = (number of non fiction books / total number of books) x (number of non fiction books - 1 / total number of books - 1) x (number of non fiction books - 2 / total number of books - 2)

9 /15 x 8/14 x 7/13 = 0.1846
