Question 775939: Three vehicles (one blue, one green and one grey) with a carrying capacity of
12 passengers each are to be used to ferry 30 international tourists and 5 local
tourists (who are a family) from OR Tambo Airport to Soweto. If the logistics manager randomly assigns the tourists to the vehicles, in how many ways can the local tourists use the same vehicle?
