n-1cr-1 fr identical objects
6c2=15

Formula for atleast one is= n-1Cr-1;
so the answer is 6C2= 15;

1806
here thigs are different so we cannot use n-1c(r-1)
the different way of grouping 7 different things are-(1/3/3),(1/4/2),(1,5,1),(2,2,3)
(1/2/3)=(7!*3!)/(3!*3!*2!)=30240/72=420
(1/4/2)=(7!*3!)/(4!*2!)=30240/48=630
(1/5/1)=(7!*3!)/(5!*2!)=30240/240=126
(2/2/3)=(7!*3!)/(2!*2!*2!*3!)=30240/48=630
on addind all the values we get 1806

arranging 7 different things to 3 people= first select and then rearrenge as:
3^7 * 3!

Is this solution Helpfull? Yes (2) | No (5)  

Vibhu Gaur  (11 years ago)

If it is given there are different objects n to be distributed among different persons r . The formula is r^n. Here r is 3 and n is 7 so 3^7.
But as given each one must get at least one so we have (0 _ _ ) * 3! cases and (0 0 _)*2! to eliminate
So ans is 3^7- 3!*2!= 2187-12=2175

Is this solution Helpfull? Yes (1) | No   

Heena Jain  (11 years ago)

ans is 299
first factorize 725 u get 29*5*5*1*1
i.e. 39+63+63+67+67=299
