You can put this solution on YOUR website! From 5 CBA, 4 CSM, and 3 COE students, a committee consisting of 3 CBA, 2 CSM, and 1 COE student is to be formed. In how many ways can this be done if 2 particular CBA students cannot be in the committee?
----
Pick 3 CBA from 3 CBA: 3C3 = 1 way
Pick 2 CSM from 4 CSM: 4C2 = 6 ways
Pick 1 COE from 3 COE: 3C1 = 3 ways
-----
# of ways to form the committee: 1*6*3 = 18
