A nursery has 10 tree seedlings to give out at 2 workshops. It wants to give out a minimum of 2 seedlings at each workshop. How

11111nata11111 [884]

We are given total 10 tree seedlings.

Number of workshops = 2.

Here order doesn't matters.

<em>When order doesn't matters we apply combination.</em>

We know formula of combination:

$C(n,r) = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

For the given situation, we have

n=10 and r=2.

Plugging values in formula, we get

$\frac{10!}{2!(10-8)!} = \frac{10\times 9\times8!}{2!8!}$

$\frac{10 \times 9}{2} = \frac{90}{2} =45$

<h3>Therefore, 45 different ways can the nursery give out seedlings.</h3>

When we add or subtract rational numbers with unlike denominators, we need to change the rational numbers to equivalent rational numbers that have the same denominators, before we find the sum or difference.
