Answer:

if in a party ,10 people shake hands with each other….The first person will shake hand with 9 others…

1st person=9 Shake hands

Then the second person will shake hands with 8 other persons because he had already shaken hand with the first person.

2nd person=8 Shake hands(1 Shakehand already done with the first person)

Similarly,3rd person will shake hand with 7 other persons….And This series will go on…

i.e. 3rd person=7 Shake hands,4th person=6 Shake hands…and so on….

Thus,total number of shake hands=9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1=45 Shake Hands

Alternatively,

Using formula,

n(n-1)/2

Where, ”n” is number of persons.

That is ,when 10 person shake hands with 9 others . No of Combinations are 10*(10–1)=90

But if one person shake hand with the other there will be no vice versa combination…

For Example,if a shake hand with b ,b would not again shake hand with a…

Thus ,we have to divide the total combinations by 2 in order to avoid repeatitive combination…

Thus, 90/2=45

step by step answer:

the answer is 45 hope this helps plss mark me as the brainliest that means a lot to me!!!!
