We have n=10 person we wish divide them at random into 3 groups consisting of 5,3,2 persons respectivly in how many ways is this possible?
-----
select 5:: 10C5 = (10*9*8*7*6)/(1*2*3*4*5) = 252 ways
select 3:: 5C3 = (5*4*3)/(1*2*3) = 10 ways
Select 2:: 2C2 = 1 way
----------------------
Total # of ways:: 252*10 = 2520 ways
