Question

A group of 12 people want to go to a concert. They can travel in a small car that takes one driver and one passenger and two cars that each take one driver and four passengers. If there are five drivers in the group, how many ways can they travel to the concert?

Answer 1

Answer: There are 60 ways that they can travel to the concert.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of people want to go to a concert = 12

Number of cars = 3

Number of drivers in the group = 5

So, using the "Fundamental theorem of counting":

We get that

$5\times 4\times 3\\\\=60$

Hence, there are 60 ways that they can travel to the concert.
