The probability that at least one of the {things} is {special} is the same as 1 – probability that none of them are {special}.

\n

The number of selections without {things} {special} is

\n

\\[ {\\var{g-n} \\choose \\var{m}}=\\var{comb(g-n,m)}\\] as all have to be selected from the $\\var{g-n}$ which are {colour2}.

\n

There are $\\displaystyle {\\var{g} \\choose \\var{m}}=\\var{comb(g,m)}$ ways of drawing $\\var{m}$ {things} from the $\\var{g}$.

\n

Hence the probability that none them are {special} is:

\n

\\[ \\frac{{\\var{g-n} \\choose \\var{m}}}{{\\var{g} \\choose \\var{m}}}=\\frac{\\var{comb(g-n,m)}}{\\var{possiblechoices}}\\]

So the probability we want is
