Required probability is = 1 - (probability that both sets are color sets).
Probability that both are color sets is 6C2/8C2 = 30/56 = 15/28.
So correct answer is 1 - 15/28 = 13/28.

We can use the formula:

P(at least one black and white TV) = 1 - P(No black and white TV)

P(No black and white TV) = 6/8 x 5/7 = 3/4 x 5/7 = 15/28

P(at least one black and white TV) = 1 - 15/28 = 13/28
