Hi all,

Hope you are all safe with the unfortunate events occurring throughout the world.

I was solving some problems, when I came across this problem. I have attached the screenshot of the statement to this post.

I first attempted to use combinatorics and math to solve it, but later changed to applying DP. However, I couldn't figure out a recurrence between the states (# of objects, # of groups).

I would really appreciate it if someone could lend a helping hand with the recurrence. Also, IF there is an easy mathematical solution to the problem, please share it.

Thanks for your help and time! BC
