Permutations and Combinations?

A florist has to make a floral arrangement. She has 6 banksias, 5 wattles and 4 waratahs. All the flowers of each kind are different. In how many ways can the florist make a bunch of 10 flowers if she has to use aat least 3 of each kind?





Thanks very much in advance

Permutations and Combinations?
First put 3 of each:





3 banksias


3 wattles


3 waratahs





That means you have 9 out of 10 flowers already.





You have to choose one more, out of three types.





The answer is:





3C1 = 3.
