- 6C3 * 8C3 = 20*56 = 1120 groups

- 3 boys out of 8 boys & 3 girls out of 6 girls bcz total 6 member of a group where exactly 3 boys.
8C3*6C3= 8!/(5!3!) * 6!/(3!3!)= 56*20=1120(ans)

- 1st of probability answers are always less than 1.Hence answer 1120 is wrong.
let A be the ways of forming group.
Therefore, n(A)=6C3*8C3/14C6=10/13. - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(7) No(25)
- As it is given that exactly 3 boys are there in the group, it means exactly 3 girls are in the group because group is of 6 members.
so, 8c3 * 6c3 =56*20=1120 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(6) No(0)
- 1120
8c3*6c3 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- 8c3*6c3=56+20=76
- 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(12)
- in the question there is nothing about girls so in a group there can be 0,1,2,3,4,5or all 6 girls
so the ans is 8C3(6C0+6C1+6C2+6C3+6C4+6C5+6C6)=3528 :) - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(4)
- ans:56/231
14c8=231
8c3=56 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
