Because each event is random, and not dependant on the previous event we can start multiply. 42 pills. 1:42 chance of getting the pill you want. (going to round up 1/42 to 0.024)

0.024⁴²⁼ 9.3E-69 that's the odds of getting one of each pill on the first pick or all black pills 42 times.

To answer the question we multiply that number by itself to represent getting the pills we want each time. 40 black pills, 1 each of rest.

9.3E-69²⁼ 8.66E-137

0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000866

866/1.0E-137 or 8.66 in 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
