@ankita14 @hanushanand isnt this a question of combination n not permutation?
I dunno.. kiska hai.. Mai maths karta hoon.. aap English dekhe.. :P

Wwb. Diagram
See.. What I got is..
Case1: BWW= 32*24*16/2
Case2: WBW= 32*24*18/2
Case3: WWB= 32*25*18/2

Hence all three are different, I guess..
And I think.. jab question me poochha hai 2 White and then 1 Black.. without citing any sequence.. So we shall go with CASE3 i.e. WWB!

32*25*18/2 = 7200
Incorrect. See above :p

correction third case is 16 .. Not 18 .. thats the real catch in this prob

The answer is in the mistake i did .. 18 and 16 confusion is main thing for variation .. As i said , number of ways should be calculated case which produces max number of solution .. in this it would be WBW which is 6912
why maximum...we are only told to make selections it is nowhere specified to take the case with max no or is it something we do ?
@hanushanand said:
mera WWB me 32*25*18/2 aa rha hai! and BWW me same.. 32*24*18/2 .. Don't know where I am getting it wrong! Verify!
i dont WWB aur BWW mein difference hona chhaiye...koi bhi square select karne pe you remove one row and one column i.e. total 7 squares of both colours
32*25*18/2 hi hona chhaiye humesha

Well, long story.. I left for gym at 5:00 pm.. Car's tyre got flat.. I moved it to repair shop.. Wasted 1 hour there.. then went to gym.. and now I am back.. eating maggi after a nice bath and tight biceps
I can so empathize with your enthu to go back to the gym after the car fiasco πŸ˜›
I so miss gymming :(
But I cant think of having maggi after a work out, kuch high protein wala khao bhai :)
But ya maggi se carbs toh mil rahe hai ;)

Reply #21090 dekh lo
See, the contention here is the WWB case.. coz another White square has to be selected just after the first White Square.. and since 7 White Squares get cancelled, the first time.. only 25 are left to be selected! Hence the different answer!
And I really don't think ki sabke answers would come out to be same!

You've mixed up the cases :/ anyway ans is 6912 naga sir says take case which gives max value.

yes number of ways is obviously be greater for the worst case .. we are just finding that at max these many number of cases are needed 😁

By the way , i have seen the same type of question in one of the cat 2010 time aimcat 😁 Not sure whats the source πŸ˜›
