The mouse's movements are a sequence of 10 'right' movements and 10 'up' movements. So you need to find the number of ways by using permutations. [You have RRR...RRUUU..UUUU. (10 R's and 10 U's) -> what are the ways of arranging these?]
Part (iii) is linked to part (ii).

Yes, to i and ii.
Yes, to i and ii.
For iii) would it be 200X(184754/184756) + 100X(2/184756) ?

Close; but why have you put 200 and 100? Check that.
