Thank You so much for answering my query. Though I had already managed to figure it out.

1). (4C2)/(12C2)

2).1 - (10C2)/(12C2)

I did it by Combination and got the correct answers.

This how I believe NCERT wanted the answer to be.

But never the less Thank You once again for your detailed and prompt reply.
