Answer:

The answer is 10

Explanation:

The formula for finding the combination of two given positive numbers is given by


_(n)C _(r) = (n!)/((n - r)!r!)

Where n and r are positive numbers

From the question we have

5 C 3

Simplify

That's


\binom{5}{3} = (5!)/((5 - 3)!3!) = (120)/(2! * 3 !) \\ = (120)/(2 * 6) \\ = (120)/(12)

We have the final answer as

10

Hope this helps you
