How many numbers can you get by multiplying two or more distinct members of the set [tex]$\{1,2,3,5,11\}$[/tex] together?

Respuesta :

Answer:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

set {1, 2, 3, 5, 11}

Now,

Total number of different choices of a number available = 5

Therefore,

Number of ways to choose 2 distinct numbers=  ⁵C₂

Number of ways to choose 3 distinct numbers=  ⁵C₃

Number of ways to choose 4 distinct numbers=  ⁵C₄

Number of ways to choose 5 distinct numbers=  ⁵C₅

therefore,

Total number we can get

= ⁵C₂ + ⁵C₃ + ⁵C₄ + ⁵C₅

= [tex]\frac{5!}{2!(5-2)!}+\frac{5!}{3!(5-3)!}+\frac{5!}{4!(5-4)!}+\frac{5!}{5!(5-5)!}[/tex]

=  [tex]\frac{5\times4\times3!}{2!3!}+\frac{5\times4\times3!}{3!\times2!}+\frac{5\times4!}{4!\times1!}+\frac{5!}{5!\times0!}[/tex]

= 10 + 10 + 5 + 1

= 26

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is actually 15 because 2*3*5*11, meaning 4+6+4+1, which equals 15. (This is an AOPS question, so I know this is right)
