B,B=20132,R,R=6132,G,G=12132,B&G=40132,B&R=30132,R&G=24132

Explanation:

Blue:B, Red: R , Green: G
B=5,R=3,G=4;T=(5+3+4)=12

Probability:Blue -first
B,B=512411=20132
B,R=512311=15132
B,G=512411=20132
Red -first
R,R=312211=6132
R,B=312511=15132
R,G=312411=12132
Green -first
G,G=412311=12132
G,B=412511=20132
G,R=412311=12132
