Lauren is shopping and finds 6 bracelets, 2 pairs of earrings, and 3 necklaces that she likes. How many ways can Lauren select 4 pieces of jewelry to buy?

Respuesta :

Because it does not specify that she has to choose one or two from each category all pieces of jewelry can be treated as choices in a combination set.

the formula for a combination is

[tex]C(n,r)= \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!} [/tex]

where n is a total number of choices ( 11 ) 
and r is number chosen out of those choices (4)
 so

C(11,4)= \frac{11!}{4!(11-4)!} 

She has 330 possible choices  to come home with 4 pieces of jewelry
