The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of choosing 3 boys and 4 girls for a Kho-Kho team from a group of 8 boys and 6 girls, we can use the concept of combinations. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the total number of boys and girls:** - Total boys = 8 - Total girls = 6 2. **Determine how many boys and girls we need to choose:** - Boys to choose = 3 - Girls to choose = 4 3. **Calculate the number of ways to choose 3 boys from 8 boys:** - The number of ways to choose 3 boys from 8 is given by the combination formula: \[ \text{C}(n, r) = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!} \] - Here, \( n = 8 \) and \( r = 3 \): \[ \text{C}(8, 3) = \frac{8!}{3!(8-3)!} = \frac{8!}{3! \cdot 5!} \] - Expanding this gives: \[ \text{C}(8, 3) = \frac{8 \times 7 \times 6}{3 \times 2 \times 1} = \frac{336}{6} = 56 \] 4. **Calculate the number of ways to choose 4 girls from 6 girls:** - The number of ways to choose 4 girls from 6 is: \[ \text{C}(6, 4) = \frac{6!}{4!(6-4)!} = \frac{6!}{4! \cdot 2!} \] - Expanding this gives: \[ \text{C}(6, 4) = \frac{6 \times 5}{2 \times 1} = \frac{30}{2} = 15 \] 5. **Calculate the total number of ways to form the team:** - Since the choices of boys and girls are independent, we multiply the number of ways to choose boys by the number of ways to choose girls: \[ \text{Total ways} = \text{C}(8, 3) \times \text{C}(6, 4) = 56 \times 15 \] - Performing the multiplication: \[ 56 \times 15 = 840 \] ### Final Answer: The total number of ways to choose 3 boys and 4 girls for the Kho-Kho team is **840**. ---
