C) 720 D) 360
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1170

Explanation:

Possibilities     Bowlers      Batsmen         Number of ways

 

                         6               9

 

         1              4                7              (6C4*9C7)

 

         2              5                6              6C5*9C6

 

         3              6                5              6C6*9C5

 

6C4*9C7 = 15 x 36 = 540

Q:

Goldenrod and No Hope are in a horse race with 6 contestants. How many different arrangements of finishes are there if No Hope always finishes before Goldenrod and if all of the horses finish the race?

A) 720 B) 360
C) 120 D) 640
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 360

Explanation:

Two horses A and B, in a race of 6 horses... A has to finish before B

 

if A finishes 1... B could be in any of other 5 positions in 5 ways and other horses finish in 4! Ways, so total ways 5*4!

 

if A finishes 2... B could be in any of the last 4 positions in 4 ways. But the other positions could be filled in 4! ways, so the total ways 4*4!

 

if A finishes 3rd... B could be in any of last 3 positions in 3 ways, but the other positions could be filled in 4! ways, so total ways 3*4!

 

if A finishes 4th... B could be in any of last 2 positions in 2 ways, but the other positions could be filled in 4! ways, so total ways... 2 * 4! 

 

if A finishes 5th .. B has to be 6th and the top 4 positions could be filled in 4! ways..

 

A cannot finish 6th, since he has to be ahead of B

 

Therefore total number of ways = 5*4! + 4*4! + 3*4! + 2*4! + 4! = 120 + 96 + 72 + 48 + 24 = 360

Q:

How many integers, greater than 999 but not greater than 4000, can be formed with the digits 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4, if repetition of digits is allowed?

A) 376 B) 375
C) 500 D) 673
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 376

Explanation:

The smallest number in the series is 1000, a 4-digit number.

 

The largest number in the series is 4000, the only 4-digit number to start with 4. 

 

The left most digit (thousands place) of each of the 4 digit numbers other than 4000 can take one of the 3 values 1 or 2 or 3.

 

The next 3 digits (hundreds, tens and units place) can take any of the 5 values 0 or 1 or 2 or 3 or 4.

 

Hence, there are 3 x 5 x 5 x 5 or 375 numbers from 1000 to 3999.

 

Including 4000, there will be 376 such numbers.
