6! / (3! * 3!) => 
720 / (6 * 6) => 
720 / 36 => 
20

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is A. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of parks available for the club = 6

Capacity of the list of parks which is to be formed = 3

So, We need to select a list of 3 parks

Thus, we need to find the total number of different ways in which list of 3 parks can be formed from the total number of 6 parks.

$\text{Number of different 3-parks list which can be chosen = }_3^6\txterm{C}\\\\\text{Number of different 3-parks list which can be chosen = } \frac{6!}{3!\times 3!}\\\\\text{Number of different 3 parks list which can be chosen = }\frac{6\times 5\times 4}{6}\\\\\text{Number of different 3 parks list which can be chosen = }20$

Therefore, The correct answer is A. 20
