Let n be a natural number. Suppose that there are n Metro stations in a city located along a circular path. Each pair of stations is connected by a straight track only. Further, each pair of nearest stations is connected by a blue line, whereas all remaining pairs of stations are connected by a red line. If the number of red lines is 56 times the number of blue lines, then what is the value of n?
Let . Suppose that there are 440 Metro stations in a city located along a circular path. Each pair of stations is connected by a straight track only. Further, each pair of nearest stations is connected by a blue line, whereas all remaining pairs of stations are connected by a red line. If the number of red lines is 100 times the number of blue lines, then find the number of blue lines and red lines?

Four different movies are running in a town. Ten students go to watch these four movies. The number of ways in which every movie is watched by atleast one student, is (Assume each way differs only by number of students watching a movie)
To find the solutions of a + b + c = 6 such that a,b,c are non-negative integers
Since zero is included, we have a ≥ 0, b ≥ 0, c ≥ 0
Number of solutions of a + b + c = 6 is equivalent to the number of ways of distributing 6 identical things into 3 different people, which can be achieved by arranging 6 objects and 3 - 1 = 2 partitions in a row. The number of objects before the first partition is given to first person, the number of objects in between the two partitions is given to second person and number of objects after second partition is given to third person.
Number of ways of doing this arrangement is , which can also be written as
Hence the total number of solutions
Generalized formula
For whole number solutions of , we have the formula .

The natural number solutions of are
Q: Find the Natural number of solutions of a + b + c = 6 such that a,b,c are natural numbers
Solution:
Since zero is included, we have a ≥ 1, b ≥ 1, c ≥ 1
Let us define new variables
a' + 1 = a
b' + 1 = b
c' + 1 = c
Now if a', b', c' are whole numbers then a, b, c will be natural numbers.
So the equation becomes a' + 1 + b' + 1 + c' + 1 = 6
a' + b' + c' = 3
So whole number solutions of this equation equal natural number solutions of a + b + c = 6
Hence the total number of solutions
