    If \[{{\,}^{15}}{{C}_{3r}}={{\,}^{15}}{{C}_{r+3,}}\]then r is equal to:

    A)  2                                            

    B)  4

    C)  3                            

    D)  6

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[{{\,}^{15}}C{{ & }_{3r}}={{\,}^{15}}{{C}_{r+3,}}\] If \[{{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{r}}={{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{s}},\]then \[r+s=n\] Hence, \[3r+r+3=15\]or \[4r=12\] \[r=\frac{12}{4}=3\]
