Answer» Correct Answer - C `(c )` First arrange `8` blue alike bottles `to ` number of ways `=1` Now select one gap out of `9` gaps created to put two green bottles `to `number of ways `=.^(9)C_(1)` Now select `5` more gaps for other green bottles from remaining `8` gaps `to` number of ways `=.^(8)C_(5)` Hence, total number of ways `=.(9)C_(1)*^(8)C_(5)=9*(8*7*6)/(1*2*3)=504` |
