Options:
A .  32
B .  48

D .  96
E .  None of these
Answer: Option C

We may have(1 black and 2 non-black) or (2 black and 1 non-black) or (3 black).


= (3C1 x 6C2) + (3C2 x 6C1) + (3C3)


\(\left(3\times\frac{6\times5}{2\times1}\right)+\left(\frac{3\times2}{2\times1}\times6\right)+1\)


= (45 + 18 + 1)


= 64.
