A and B

**Five students are to be allocated into three distinguishable teams.**

**a.** How many distributions are there? In other words, how many different possible sizes can the teams have? (Include empty teams.) For example, “Team 1 and 2 each have two members and Team 3 has one member” is one of the distributions being counted; perhaps 221 is a good way to represent this distribution. Enumerate (list out) all possible distributions and then check your answer with the appropriate formula.

**b.** Suppose a distribution is chosen: two students will be on the first and second teams each, while a single student will be on the third team. How many different combinations of teams are there? For example, “Team 1: Alicia and Carlos, Team 2: Davina and Bob, Team 3: Erik” is one of the combinations of teams being counted. Perhaps AC | DB | E is a good way to represent these teams. Enumerate all possible combinations of teams and check your answer with the appropriate formula.
