A manufacturer of chocolates makes 6 different flavors of chocolates. The chocolates are sold in boxes of 10. How many different boxes of chocolates can be made?
(NOTE: A box is considered different from another only if, regardless of the order, the box contains a different number of chocolates of at least one type)
A. 3003
B. 10^6
C. 3000
D. 6^10

• f n similar articles are to be distributed to r persons, x1+x2+x3......xr=n each person is eligible to take any number of articles then the total ways are n+r−1Cr−1
  In this case x1+x2+x3......x6=10
  in such a case the formula for non negative integral solutions is n+r−1Cr−1
  Here n =10 and r=6. So total ways are 10+6−1C6−1 = 3003

• (n+r-1) C (r-1)
  here n=10;r=6
  => (10+6-1)C(6-1)
  => 15 C 5
  => (15*14*13*12*11)/(5*4*3*2*1)
  => 3003
