Question 1061620: A 60th class reunion is taking place. If you know that 19 women and 16 men are alive but only 12 can attend, what is the probability that you would have exactly 6 men and 6 women attend? Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The total number of possibilities is 35C12
The numerator is 19C6*12C6, the number of ways to choose exactly 6 women from 19 and 6 meant from 12.
That is 0.03
Calculator number MATH==PRB==3 and put in second number. ENTER.
Notice how the 19 and 16 in the numerator add to 35
The 6 and 6 in the numerator add to 12
