| Jun 15, 2016 at 0:14 | comment | added | hardmath | Sadly it does not "end up being 26C8 divided by... something". You are counting how many color combinations are possible (outcomes distinguishable only by the number of each color). While the possible colors will add up to $8$ in each outcome, and the colors give an "order" to those summands, it is not as simple as how many weak compositions of $8$ there are with at most $8$ summands (the number of colors), because you have bounds on how large certain summands can be (only the count of red balls can be as large as all $8$). | |
