Given 5 flags of different colours, how many different signals can be generated if each signal requires the use of 2 flags, one below the other?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Total possible results for first flag = 5
Total possible results for second flag = 4
Therefore, total possible signals `= 5 xx 4 = 20`.
