In how many ways can a committee of 2 women and 3 men be chosen…

Explanation

A committee of 2 women and 3 men can be chosen from 6 men and 5 women, in \(^{5}C_{2}\) x \(^{6}C_{3}\) ways

= \(\frac{5!}{(5 - 2)!2!} \times {\frac{6!}{(6 - 3)!3!}}\)

= \(\frac{5!}{3!2!} \times {\frac{6!}{3 \times 3!}}\)

= \(\frac{5 \times 4 \times 3!}{3! \times 2!} \times {\frac{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3!}{3! \times 3!}}\)

= \(\frac{5 \times 4}{1 \times 2} \times {\frac{6 \times 5 \times 4}{1 \times 2 \times 3}}\)

= 10 x \(\frac{6 \times 20}{6}\)

= 200
