If you decompose 9 you will get 3*3 so 9=3*3
If you decompose 12 you will get 2*6,then you can decompose 6 which 2*3 so 12=2*2*3
If you decompose 6 you will get 2*3 so 6=2*3
What do all of these numbers have in common?The 3.
So 3 is the greatest common factor.Now you just put the 3 in front and then open the bracket and divide each of the number by 3.
9/3=3
-12x/3=4x
6y/3=2y
So,this will be your answer 3(3-4x+2y)
There are 91 such ways in whih the volunteers can be assigned if two of them cannot be assigned from 14 volunteers.
Given that a school dance committee has 14 volunteers and each dance requires 3 volunteers at the door, 5 volunteers on the floor and 6 on floaters.
We are required to find the number of ways in which the volunteers can be assigned.
Combinations means finding the ways in which the things can be choosed to make a new thing or to do something else.
n
=n!/r!(n-r)!
Number of ways in which the volunteers can be assigned is equal to the following:
Since 2 have not been assigned so left over volunteers are 14-2=12 volunteers.
Number of ways =14
=14!/12!(14-12)!
=14!/12!*2!
=14*13/2*1
=91 ways
Hence there are 91 such ways in whih the volunteers can be assigned if two of them cannot be assigned.
