A delegation of 5 members has to be formed from 3 ladies and 5 gentlemen. In how many ways the delegation can be formed, if 2 particular ladies are always included in the delegation?

  • A.20
  • B.54
  • C.42
  • D.60

Answer: A

The two particular ladies are already in, so only three more places remain and they come from the other six people (1 lady and 5 gentlemen).

\[ {}^{6}C_{3} = 20 \]

Fixing members reduces both the size of the pool and the number still to be chosen.
