Right choice is (c) 30
Best explanation: Out of 5 males, 2 males can be selected in ^5C2 ways.
^5C2 = \(\frac{5!}{(5-2)! 2!} = \frac{5*4*3!}{(3)! 2!} = \frac{20}{2}\) = 10 ways.
Out of 3 females, 2 females can be selected in ^3C2 ways .
^3C2 = \(\frac{3!}{(3-2)! 2!} = \frac{3*2!}{(1)! 2!} = \frac{3}{1}\) = 3 ways.
So, by the fundamental principle of counting we can select a group of 2 males and 2 females from the family in 10*3 = 30 ways.
