Answer 2

Answer: 16384

Explanation:

Given: Total marbles = 7 (All are distinct)

Total jars = 4

Assume that, the jar is empty.

When we put marbles in the jar, we need to choose jar each time.

For each marble, total choices = Total jars = 4

Then, by using the fundamental counting principle,

The number of ways to put seven marbles in different colors into four jars =

`4^7`

= 16384

Hence, the required number of ways =16384
