उत्तर

72

Explanation:

In the following figure:

There are 4 bus routes from A to B and 3 routes from B to C.

Therefore, there are 4 × 3 = 12 ways to go from A to C.

It is round trip so the man will travel back from C to A via B.

It is restricted that man can not use same bus routes from C to B and B to A more than once.

Thus, there are 2 × 3 = 6 routes for return journey.

Therefore, the required number of ways = 12 × 6 = 72.
