Step-by-step explanation:
Given We have four different dishes, two dishes of each type. In how many ways can these be distributed among 8 people ?
- Let two dishes be paired DD and two other dishes be paired as CC and so on. So the number of ways to create the paired dishes will be from among person 1 to 8
- This can be done by using the concept of multinomial coefficient.
- ( n
- b1,b2…..bn )
- So we get n! / b1!b2!......bn!
- ( 8
- 2,2,2,2 )
- = 8! / 2^4
- = 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 / 16
- = 2520 ways
