Imagine that you are on a strict diet that only allows you to eat 6 pieces of candy, and that to maximize your enjoyment of your treat, you will be eating this candy one piece at a time. Second, how many possible outcomes are there for the second step (the second piece of candy eaten)? Note that the numbers of candy pieces may have changed from the previous question.
