Answer:
There are (63) combinations. The notation means "six choose three". Out of six items (flavors) choose three.
(nk)=n!k!(n−k)!.
(63)=6!3!3!.
Think of it this way. There are 6 ways to choose a flavor. Once you choose, there are 5 ways to choose the next. After that, there are 4 flavors left. which is 6!/3!=6⋅5⋅4⋅3⋅2⋅13⋅2⋅1=6⋅5⋅4=120.
But, you could have chosen {chocolate,vanilla,strawberry} and you get the same combination as {vanilla, strawberry, chocolate} so we have to divide by 3!=3⋅2⋅1=6 to account for the order of choosing.
So the number of combinations of flavors is (63)=1206=20.

==============================================
Explanations:
- This is discrete because we can't have half a basketball, or any non-whole decimal value to represent the number of basketballs. We can only consider positive whole numbers {1,2,3,4,...}. A discrete set like this has gaps between items. In other words, the midpoint of 2 and 3 (the value 2.5) isn't a valid number of basketballs.
- This is continuous because time values are continuous. We can take any two different markers in time, and find a midpoint between them. For example, the midpoint of 5 minutes and 17 minutes is 11 minutes since (5+17)/2 = 22/2 = 11. Continuous sets like this do not have any gaps between items. We can consider this to be densely packed.
- This is the same as problem 1, so we have another discrete function. You either score a bullseye or you don't. We can't score half a bullseye. The only possible values are {1,2,3,4,...}
- This is similar to problem 2. This function is continuous. Pick any two different positive real numbers to represent the amount of gallons of water. You will always be able to find a midpoint between those values (eg: we can have half a gallon) and such a measurement makes sense.
So in short, always try to ask the question: Can I pick two different values, compute the midpoint, and have that midpoint make sense? If so, then you're dealing with a continuous variable. Otherwise, the data is discrete.
Answer: Ask the king to draw first and read it. Explain that if the king selects "leave" the PM's choice could only be "stay". It is then unnecessary for the PM to draw. It avoids embarrassing the king in his lie, demonstrates the PM's intelligence, and keeps his job.
