Answer:

There are six possible committees if only men are chosen

Explanation:

Here, we want to find the number of possible committees if only men are chosen

In this case, what will happen is that we shall be selecting the 5 people from the available 6 men

Mathematically, we can have this in 6C5 ways

which is read as 6 combination 5 ways

And that will be 6 ways

So there are six possible committees if only men are selected
