Answer:


1.073* 10^(19)\ \text{ways}

Explanation:

It is given that,

Total no of candy are 84

She want to divide the candy up evenly and place into bags but doesn’t won’t more than 20 bags.

We need to find the possible ways she can fill the bag. It mean that this problem is based on the concept of combination.


^(84)C_(20)=(84!)/(20!(84-20)!)\\\\=(84!)/(20!64!)\\\\=1.073* 10^\\{19}

There are
1.073* 10^(19)\ \text{ways}.
