Abuja to Lagos = 6 trains  When return = 5 trains  There are = 6 × 5 = 30 ways
$$\mathrm{Abuja}\:\mathrm{to}\:\mathrm{Lagos}\:=\:\mathrm{6}\:\mathrm{trains} \\ $$$$\mathrm{When}\:\mathrm{return}\:=\:\mathrm{5}\:\mathrm{trains} \\ $$$$\mathrm{There}\:\mathrm{are}\:=\:\mathrm{6}\:×\:\mathrm{5}\:=\:\mathrm{30}\:\mathrm{ways} \\ $$
