उत्तर

Total number of persons = 8

Number of persons to be selected = 6

Condition is that if A is choosen, B must be choosen

Case I: When A is choosen, B must be choosen

Number of ways = 6C4   ......[∵ A and B are set to be choosen]

Case II: When A is not choosen, then B may be choosen

∴ Number of ways = 7C6

So, the total number of ways = 6C4 + 7C6   ......[∵ There are two cases]

= 6C2 + 7C1   ......[nCr = nCn–r]

= `(6.5)/(2.1) + 7`

= 15 + 7

= 22 ways

Hence, the required number of ways = 22.
