From (4) blue and (6) green pencils, (3) pencils are to be selected with exactly (2) green pencils. How many ways are there?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 60

There are \(\binom{6}{2}=15\) ways to choose exactly 2 green pencils. The remaining pencil must be blue, which can be chosen in \(\binom{4}{1}=4\) ways. Hence, the total number of selections is \(\binom{6}{2}\binom{4}{1}=15\times4=60\). A value such as 45 results from an incorrect count that does not properly include the required blue pencil. Exam tip: multiply the numbers of ways when choices from separate groups are made independently.
