In how many ways can at least (3) and at most (5) gifts be selected from (13) different gifts?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (2288)

The direct answer is option C, 2288. “At least 3 and at most 5” means the number selected may be 3, 4, or 5. Since order does not matter, use combinations: \(\binom{13}{3}+\binom{13}{4}+\binom{13}{5}\). These are \(286+715+1287=2288\). Option A, 1716, omits one allowed group or uses an incorrect count. Option B, 2002, is not the required sum and is only one combination value here. Option C includes all three permitted sizes exactly once, so it is correct. Option D, 2717, overcounts and does not equal the required combination sum. The words “at least” give the lower bound and “at most” give the upper bound; do not include 2 or 6 gifts.
