A grid path must pass through a point reached after 3 right and 2 up moves. The total journey has 7 right and 4 up moves. How many such paths are there?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 150

The required point divides every valid route into two independent parts. In the first part, the path contains 3 right moves and 2 up moves, five moves in all. Their order can be chosen in 5C3 = 10 ways. From that point to the destination, the remaining moves are 7 − 3 = 4 right and 4 − 2 = 2 up, six moves in all. This second part can be arranged in 6C4 = 15 ways, equivalently 6C2. By the multiplication principle, each first-part route can be paired with each second-part route, giving 10 × 15 = 150. Therefore option A is correct; adding the counts would be inappropriate because both parts must occur together.
