Answer Posted / suda

at the worst case she will pick up 32red
at the second case there is no red at worst case she pick up
and may get 25 yellow
by third time there is only blue if she pick only 2 that
pair must be blue.


so 32+25+2=59


there is no option of 59 so even if she pick 3 blue one pair
of blue will be their so 60 is write answer.
