Solution
A boy can be selected from the first team in 6 ways and from the second team in 5 ways.
∴ Number of ways of arranging a match between the boys of the two teams = 6\[\times\]5 = 30
Similarly, A girl can be selected from the first team in 4 ways and from the second team in 3 ways.
∴ Number of ways of arranging a match between the girls of the two teams = 4\[\times\]3= 12
∴ Total number of matches = 30 + 12 = 42
