Answer 2

Answer: 180

Explanation:

Given : A bag contains three red marbles, five green ones, one lavender one, two yellows, and six orange marbles.

The number of ways to choose one thing out of n is given by:-

`^nC_1=(n!)/(1!(n-1)!)=n`

Number of ways to choose one red marble out of 3=
`^3C_1=3`

Number of ways to choose one green marble out of 5=
`^5C_1=5`

Number of ways to choose one yellow marble out of 2=
`^2C_1=2`

Number of ways to choose one orange marble out of 6=
`^6C_1=1`

By using the Fundamental counting principle , we have

The number of sets of four marbles include one of each color other than lavender will be :-

`3*5*2*6=180`

Hence, the number of sets of four marbles include one of each color other than lavender =180
