Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Given,

Number of Indians = 6

Number of foreigners = 8

Committee of at least 2 Indians and double number of foreigners is to be formed. Hence, the required cases are

(2I, 4F) + (3I, 6F) + (4I, 8F)

= 6C2×8C4+6C3×8C6+6C4×8C8{}^6{C_2} \times {}^8{C_4} + {}^6{C_3} \times {}^8{C_6} + {}^6{C_4} \times {}^8{C_8}

= (15 ×\times 70) + (20 ×\times 28) + (15 ×\times 1)

= 1050 + 560 + 15 = 1625
