(A) 990 B) 11,304 (C) 11,256 (D) 700 (E) 471 (F) 16, 800 (G) 126 (B) 111 (J) 469 (K) 1,980 (L) none of the others
Solution
Since Anne took 4 shirts with atleast 1 blue and 1 white, and the total number of shirts is 13.
There are different possible ways of taking the shirts is
Case1: 1 white, 1 blue, 2 yellow.
The possible number of ways of doing this is 6(3)(6)=108
Case2: 1 White, 2 blue, 1 yellow
The possible number of ways of doing this is 6(3)(4)=72
Case 3: 1 White , 3 blue
The possible number of ways of doing this is 6(1)=6
Case 4: 2 White , 1 blue, 1 yellow
The possible number of ways of doing this is 15(3)(4)=180
Case 5: 3 White , 1 blue
The possible number of ways of doing this is 20(3)=60
Case 6: 2 White , 2 blue
The possible number of ways of doing this is 15(3)=45
Total number of ways is 108+72+6+180+60+45=471
Hence option E is corect
