number of ways $3$ teachers can be invited for a guest lecturer on $6$ days in a school

$begingroup$



In how many ways $3$ teachers can be invited for a guest lecturer on $6$ days in a school so that every teacher is invited at least once (on any given day exactly one teacher is invited)




Try: First Teacher $T_{1}$ has $6$ possiability (In any one of $6$ days)



Second Teacher $T_{2}$ has $5$ Possiability



Third Teacher $T_{3}$ has $4$ possiability



So total $6times 5 times 4 = 120$



But answer given as $540$



Could some help me how to count total ways so the answer is $540$



Thanks in advance

    You are only filling 3 days. You need a guest on all 6 days. So, some teachers will need to repeat. There does not appear to be a further restriction so it could be that all visit twice or one comes four times and the others just once.

Undesired events:




  • A single teacher teaches repeately. $3$ ways to do so.

  • Only two teachers. First choose one of the teacher to exclude him/her, and then we avoid two extreme cases where one teacher teaches everyday.


$$3cdot (2^6-2)$$



Hence the undesired outcomes are $$3(2^6-1)$$



Without restriction, we could have $3^6$. Hence



$$3^6-3(2^6-1)=3(3^5-2^6+1)=3(243-64+1)=3(180)=540$$
