Expert Solution

We have to select 3 fruits. It will contain 1 banana and 2 more fruits.

Case 1: 2 fruits are bananas.

Number of ways = 1

Case 2: both are not bananas

a) both are same fruits

Number of ways = ²C1 = 2

b) both are different fruits

Number of ways = 1

Case 3: 1 fruit is banana

Number of ways = 1×²C1 = 2

total number of ways = 1 + 2 + 1 + 2

= 6

Total number of ways =6

C# Palindrome Permutation: Given a string, write a function to check if it is a permutation of a palindrome. A palindrome is a word or phrase that is the same forwards and backwards. A permutation is a rearrangement of letters. The palindrome does not need to be limited to just dictionary words. Input: Tact Coa Output: True (permutations: "taco cat", "atco cta", etc.) Comment your code to explain it.
