There are 2n things out of which ‘n’ are alike and ‘n’ are different, the number of ways of selecting ‘n’ things is
2ncn
2n−1
2n
n
We can select any no of things from n alike things in only 1 way
If we select p things from n alike things, ,then we have to select n−p things from n different things
=nc0+nc1+−−−−+ncn=2n
