उत्तर

3

\[a^2 - a = 2 + 4\]  [∵
\[{}^n C_x =^n C_y \Rightarrow n = x + y\ \text{or} x = y\]]
\[\Rightarrow a^2 - a - 6 = 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow a^2 - 3a + 2a - 6 = 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow a \left( a - 3 \right) + 2 \left( a - 3 \right) = 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow \left( a + 2 \right) \left( a - 3 \right) = 0\]
\[\Rightarrow a = - 2 \text{or} a = 3\]\
But, 
\[a = - 2\] is not possible.
∴\[a = 3\]
