उत्तर

There are 11 questions, out of which 5 questions are from section I and 6 questions are from section II.

The student has to select 6 questions taking at least 2 questions from each section.

Consider the following table:

  Case I Case II Case III
No. of questions Sec I (2Q)
Sec II (4Q)
Sec I (3Q)
Sec II (3Q)
Sec I (4Q)
Sec II (2Q)
Number of ways 5C2 × 6C4
= 10 × 15
= 150
5C3 × 6C3
= 10 × 20
= 200
5C4 × 6C2
= 5 × 15
= 75

∴ Number of choices = 150 + 200 + 75 = 425

∴ In 425 ways students can select 6 questions, taking at least 2 questions from each section.
