Given:

Total number of students = 6

Number of female students = 4

Number of male students = 2

To find:

Total number of outcomes if 3 students are chosen at random (Should i find the probability of something?)

Steps:

To find the total number of outcomes, we need to list the outcomes

Outcomes = {M,M,F} , {M,F,F} , {F,F,F}

Therefore, the total number of outcomes if 3 students are chosen at random is 3, if we don't consider order.

Could you elaborate the question a bit more if i made a mistake of what to find.
