Aptitude - Permutation and Combination - Discussion

How to get the answer? Please anybody explain me.

In that question, they didn't mention anything about permutation or combination. so we can try it in both ways.

7C5 * 3C2 = (7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3)/(5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1) * (3 * 2)/(2 * 1).
= 7 * 3 * 3 = 21 * 3 = 63.

Thanks for explaining it.

How will get 7c2* 3c1?

Please explain me.

Thanks for giving an explanation.

Where 6 comes from? Please explain me.

5 out of 7 and 2 out of 3.

so,
=7c5 x 3c2.
= (7! / 5! x 2!) x (3! / 2! x 1!),
= (7 x 6 / 2) x 3,
=( 42 / 2 ) x 3,
= 21 x 3,
= 63 (ans).

The answer is 63. I agree.

Anybody help to solve this problem?

7 members have to be selected from 12 men and 3 women such that no two women can come together in how many ways we can select them?

Hi Folks, In below link, look at the formula in point no. 6, note no. ii

With the formula mentioned there, that they have written as (7C5 x 3C2) = (7C2 x 3C1). Even I was confused but when I saw that formula in above link then I understood the concept very clear. School student won't face difficulty while understanding the solution because they must be knowing this formula already but people who are out of touch with math for lot of year like me will take time to digest these solutions. Hope my comment helps everyone. Thanks.
