उत्तर

A signal is generated from 2 flags and there are 4 flags of different colours available.

∴ 1st flag can be any one of the available 4 flags.

∴ It can be selected in 4 ways.

Now, 2nd flag is to be selected for which 3 flags are available for a different signal.

∴ 2nd flag can be anyone from these 3 flags.

∴ It can be selected in 3 ways.

∴ By using fundamental principle of multiplication, total no. of ways a signal can be generated

= 4 × 3

= 12

∴ 12 different signals can be generated.
