A. 756
From a group of 7 men and 6 women, five persons are to be selected with at least 3 men.
Hence we have the following 3 choices
We can select 5 men ------(Option 1)
Number of ways to do this = 7C5
We can select 4 men and 1 woman ------(Option 2)
Number of ways to do this = 7C4 x 6C1
We can select 3 men and 2 women ------(Option 3)
Number of ways to do this = 7C3 x 6C2
Total number of ways
= 7C5 + [7C4 x 6C1] + [7C3 x 6C2]
= 7C2 + [7C3 x 6C1] + [7C3 x 6C2] [Applied the formula nCr = nC(n - r) ]
= 21 + 210 + 525 = 756
