      D 16 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The frog needs to take 6 steps to cross the pond. He can do this in the following ways: Crossing the pond by 6-unit steps = 1 way. Crossing the pond by 4-unit steps and 1 double step = 5C1 = 5C4 = 5 ways. Crossing the pond by 2-unit steps and 2 double steps = 4C2 = 6 ways. Crossing the pond by 3 double steps = 1 way. Hence, the required number of ways = 1 + 5 + 6 + 1 = 13
