A committee of 7 is chosen from 9 men and 8 women. The number of committees that contain at least 6 men is: A 708 B 602 C 954 D 552
Committee should contain 7 persons.
To find: Number of committees with atleast 6
men.
Possibilities:
1) 6 men + 1 woman
2) 7 men + 0 woman
case 1: 6 men + 1 woman:
Number of commities= (9C6)*(8C1)=84*8=672
case 2: 7 men + 0 woman:
Number of commities=(9C7)*(8C0)=36*1=36
Total number of committees with atleast 6 men =672+36=708.
