Answer:

6 combinations with a sample space of {DMC,DCM,CMD,CDM,MCD,MDC}

Explanation:

Here, we are looking for the possible combinations of books since the order doesn't matter:

Method 1: You can take the factorial of 3 since order doesn't matter, which will mean 3!=3*2*1=6 combinations

Method 2: List all the possible combinations for your sample space

DMC

DCM

CMD

CDM

MCD

MDC

Either method you choose, you'll end up with the same result of 6 combinations with a sample space of {DMC,DCM,CMD,CDM,MCD,MDC}
