There are 12 ways you can buy cookie if cookies are sold singly or in packages of 3 or 9.
What is permutation and combination?
A permutation is the number of different ways a set can be organized; order matters in permutations, but not in combinations.
As we have:
Cookies are sold singly or in packages of 3 or 9.
So the total ways you buy the cookie such that total cookie you buy is 18:
- Two - 9
- One - 9, Three-3
- One 9, Two 3, 3 single
- One 9, one 3, 6 single
- One 9, 9 single
- Six 3
- Five 3, 3 single
- Four 3, 6 single
- Three 3, 9 single
- Two 3, 12 single
- One 3, 15 single
- All 1(18 single)
Thus, there are 12 ways you can buy cookie if cookies are sold singly or in packages of 3 or 9.
