Suppose a box contains a set of n balls ...

Suppose a box contains a set of n balls `(n gt 4)`(denoted by B )of four different colours (many have different sizes), viz,red, blue, green and yellow. Show that a relation R defined on B as `R={(b_1,b_2) : "balls" b_1 "and" b_2` have the same colour} is an equivalence relation on B. How many equivalence classes can you find with respect ot R ?
