@sean_davis0821 She's not looking for a probability.
She has to count the number of possible committees.

yee  thank uuu  :)))  I did 35+6 =41 this way,  so  we should multiple them :)))  thanks so much!!

anonymous · Answer

No problem. Yes...multiply them...just like if you had 4 pants and 3 shirts, how many outfits could you put together? Not 4 + 3....It's 4 times 3 = 12 possible combinations.
