150 different committees are possible
<h3><u>
Solution:</u></h3>
Given that a student dance committee is to be formed consisting of 2 boys and 4 girls
The membership is to be chosen from 5 boys and 6 girls
To find : number of different possible committees
A combination is a selection of all or part of a set of objects, without regard to the order in which objects are selected
<em><u>The formula for combination is given as:</u></em>

where "n" represents the total number of items, and "r" represents the number of items being chosen at a time
<em><u>We have to select 2 boys from 5 boys</u></em>
So here n = 5 and r = 2

<em><u>We have to select 4 girls from 6 girls</u></em>
Here n = 6 and r = 4

<em><u>Committee is to be formed consisting of 2 boys and 4 girls:</u></em>
So we have to multiply
and 

So 150 different committees are possible
