counting

In a network of railways, a small island has 15 stations. Find the number of different tickets to be printed for each class, if every station must have tickets for the other station.



Answer:
Station number 1 will have 14 tickets. Station number 2 will have 13 tickets and so on. Therefore the total number of tickets = 14 + 13 + 12 ........1 = 14 x 15 / 2 = 105
