I disaree with teresaa I'm sorry, this is a type of combination problem: therefore the answer should be 8C6 which is equal to 28ways.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

by the way Combination (C) at my answer is \[n! \over (n-r)!r!\] where ! means factorial, n is the number of things, r taken at a time. so by substituting the values. \[8! \over (8-6)!6!\] the answer will be 28 ways. I hope this would help.
