Q:

In how many ways can 5 different toys be packed in 3 identical boxes such that no box is empty, if any of the boxes may hold all of the toys ?

A) 36 B) 25
C) 24 D) 72
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 25

Explanation:

The toys are different; The boxes are identical 

 

If none of the boxes is to remain empty, then we can pack the toys in one of the following ways 

a. 2, 2, 1 

b. 3, 1, 1 

 

Case a. Number of ways of achieving the first option 2 - 2 - 1 

 

Two toys out of the 5 can be selected in 5C2 ways. Another 2 out of the remaining 3 can be selected in 3C2 ways and the last toy can be selected in 1C1 way. 

 

However, as the boxes are identical, the two different ways of selecting which box holds the first two toys and which one holds the second set of two toys will look the same. Hence, we need to divide the result by 2 

 

Therefore, total number of ways of achieving the 2 - 2 - 1 option is ways 5C2*3C2= 15 ways

 

 

Case b. Number of ways of achieving the second option 3 - 1 - 1

 

Three toys out of the 5 can be selected in 5C3 ways. As the boxes are identical, the remaining two toys can go into the two identical looking boxes in only one way.

 

Therefore, total number of ways of getting the 3 - 1 - 1 option is 5C3 = 10 = 10 ways.

 

 

 

Total ways in which the 5 toys can be packed in 3 identical boxes

 

= number of ways of achieving Case a + number of ways of achieving Case b= 15 + 10 = 25 ways.

Q:

A team of 8 students goes on an excursion, in two cars, of which one can seat 5 and the other only 4. In how many ways can they travel?

A) 126 B) 240
C) 120 D) 260
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 126

Explanation:

There are 8 students and the maximum capacity of the cars together is 9.

 

We may divide the 8 students as follows

 

Case I: 5 students in the first car and 3 in the second Or

 

Case II: 4 students in the first car and 4 in the second

 

Hence,     in Case I: 8 students are divided into groups of 5 and 3 in 8C3 ways.

 

Similarly, in Case II: 8 students are divided into two groups of 4 and 4 in 8C4 ways.

 

Therefore, the total number of ways in which 8 students can travel is

 

8C3+8C4 = 56 + 70 = 126.
