This question is equivalent to “What is the probability that 9 different chips randomly drawn from a box containing 4 red chips and 8 blues chips will contain the 4 red chips?” The hypergeometric probability is

[[math]] \frac{\binom{4}{4}\binom{8}{5}}{\binom{12}{9}} \frac{1(56)}{220} = 0.2545. [[/math]]
