Problem 1: Selecting a Group

Florida State University (FSU) wants to select 3 men and 2 women from a group of 8 men and 5 women. How many ways can the group of five persons be selected?

Solution:

  • Ways to select 3 men from 8: 8! / (3! * (8-3)!) = 56
  • Ways to select 2 women from 5: 5! / (2! * (5-2)!) = 10
  • Total ways to select the group: 56 * 10 = 560

Therefore, there are 560 ways to select the group.
