Q:

Out of 3 girls and 6 boys a group of three members is to be formed in such a way that at least one member is a girl. In how many different ways can it be done?

A) 64 B) 84
C) 56 D) 20
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 64

Explanation:

Total number of possible ways = 9C3 = 84 ways

Required atleast one girl in the group of three = total possible ways - ways in which none is girl

None of the members in the group is girl = 6C3 = 20

 

Therefore, number of ways that at least one member is a girl in the group of three

= 84 - 20

= 64 ways.
