Catherine rolls a 6-sided die five times, and the product of her rolls is 300. How many different sequences of rolls could there have been? (The order of the rolls matters.)

The prime factorization of 300 is \(2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 5 \times 5\)

 

There are \({5! \over 2! 2!} = \color{brown}\boxed{30}\) ways to order these.

12556, 13455, 22355==3 combinations.


12556 ==5! / 2! ==60 permutations
13455 ==5! / 2! ==60 permutations
22355 ==5! / 2!2!==30 permutations


60  +  60  +  30 ==150 permutations - or such sequences.
