Answer: The value of n = 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of beads is to selected = 20

Number of dozen each of n different colored beads = 2

Number of different colored beads = n

With repetitions of colors allowed.

Number of ways = 230,230

So, it becomes

[tex]^{20+n-1}C_{n-1}=^{19+n}C_{n-1}=^{19+n}C_{20}[/tex]

now,

[tex]^{19+n}C_{20}=230,230[/tex]

By hit and trial we get that

[tex]19+n=26\\\\n=26-19\\\\n=7[/tex]

Hence, the value of n = 7.
