-- He must have at least one of each color in the case, so the first 3 of the 5 marbles in the case are  blue-green-black.

Now the rest of the collection consists of

                    4 blue
                    4 green
                    2 black

and there's space for 2 more marbles in the case.

So the question really asks:  "In how many ways can 2 marbles
be selected from 4 blue ones, 4 green ones, and 2 black ones ?"

-- Well, there are 10 marbles all together. 
So the first one chosen can be any one of the 10,
       and for each of those,
the second one can be any one of the remaining 9 .

Total number of ways to pick 2 out of the 10  =  (10 x 9)  =  90 ways.

-- BUT ... there are not nearly that many different combinations
to wind up with in the case.    

The first of the two picks can be any one of the 3 colors,
             and for each of those,
the second pick can also be any one of the 3 colors. 

So there are actually only 9 distinguishable ways (ways that
you can tell apart) to pick the last two marbles.

Judys brother sam has a collection of 96 comic book. What are the ten way sam could divide his comic books into equal groups?
Georgia [21]
We have been given that Judy’s brother Sam has a collection of 96 comic books.
We have been asked to find the 10 ways Sam could divide his comic books into equal groups.
This can be done as follows:
96 can be written as .
Thus, we can either have 2 groups of 48 comics or 48 groups of 2 comics. As we can see we have 2 ways to divide the comic books in equal groups.
Likewise, 96 can also be written as . Here, we can similarly see that we can either have 3 groups of 32 comics or 32 groups of 3 comics. As we can again see we have 2 more ways to divide the comic books in equal groups, taking the total number of ways to 4.
Continuing in this manner we will see that we can have 4 groups of 24 or 24 groups of 4, 6 groups of 16 or 16 groups of 6 and lastly 12 groups of 8 or 8 groups of 12 comic books, thus taking the count to a total of 10 ways in which Sam can divide his comic books into equal groups.

Step-by-step explanation:
