Full solution

Q. There’s 1313 people. They’re wearing shirts of orange, green and red. The teams must sit together in a row of 1313. But, the order can be switched around between teams. How many orders can we form
  1. Define People in Shirts: Let's say there are xx people in orange shirts, yy people in green shirts, and zz people in red shirts, where x+y+z=13x + y + z = 13.
  2. Calculate Arrangements: First, we need to find the number of ways to arrange the three teams (orange, green, red) in a row. That's 3!3! ways.\newlineCalculation: 3!=3×2×1=63! = 3 \times 2 \times 1 = 6
  3. Consider Team Arrangements: Now, we need to consider the arrangements within each team. Since we don't know how many people are in each team, we can't calculate that yet.
