The number of ways in which 8 distinct toys can be distributed among 5 children? Correct Answer 5^8

As the toys are distinct and not identical,

For each of the 8 toys, we have three choices as to which child will receive the toy. Therefore, there are 58 ways to distribute the toys.

 

Hence, it is 58 and not 85.
