b) Committee of 2 girls =

(c) Committee of one boy and one girl =

 ∴  Sample space = {..., ..., ..., ..., ..., ...}

Answer 1

(a) Committee of 2 boys = B₁, B₂
(b) Committee of 2 girls = G₁, G₂
(c) Committee of one boy and one girl = (B₁, G₁), (B₁, G₂), (B₂, G₁), (B₂, G₂)

 ∴  Sample space = {(B₁, B₂), (G₁, G₂), (B₁, G₁), (B₁, G₂), (B₂, G₁), (B₂, G₂)}
or n(S) = 6
