If there are 6 questions in part A and 7 in part B, in how many ways can 10 questions be answered ?
----------------------
Combinations from A and from B:: 4/6 ; 5/5 ; 6/4
----
# of ways to get the 4/6 pattern: 6C4*7C6 = 15*7 = 105
----
# of ways to get the 5/5 pattern: 6C5*7C5 = 6*21 = 126
----
# of ways to get the 6/4 pattern: 6C6*7C4 = 1*35 = 35
----
Total # of ways: 266

Hi,
In an examination 10 questions are to be answered choosing at least 4 from each of part A and part B.
If there are 6 questions in part A and 7 in part B,
in how many ways can 10 questions be answered ?
(6C4)(7C4) 2 remaining questions to be answered (0,1,2) from part A, rest from part B
in how many ways can 10 questions be answered ?
