Here's the Solution to this Question

There are 5+6+13=24 clothes. Pramod can select three clothes in \dbinom{24}{3}=2024.

Then

P(No\ pants)=\dfrac{\dbinom{5+13}{3}\dbinom{6}{0}}{\dbinom{24}{3}}=\dfrac{816(1)}{2024}

=\dfrac{102}{253}

The probability that, randomly chosen clothes does not contain pant is \dfrac{102}{253}\approx0.403.
