Question
The number of ways in which 15 identical apples & 10 identical oranges can be distributed among three persons, each receiving none, one or more is:
Options
A.5670
B.7200
C.8976
D.none of these
Solution
Using multinomial theorem
Total no. of ways = 15 + 3 - 1C15 × 10 + 3 - 1C10
= 17C15 × 12C10
=
= 8975
Total no. of ways = 15 + 3 - 1C15 × 10 + 3 - 1C10
= 17C15 × 12C10
=
