2n objects of each of three kinds are  given to two persons, so that each  person gets 3n objects. Prove that  this can be done in 3n^2  + 3n + 1 ways.

let the first person have a,b and c objects  from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd kind  ⇒a+b+c=3n  0≤a,b,c≤2n  b+c=3n−a  1) for a=0,...,n  (b,c)∈{(n−a,2n),...,(2n,n−a)}  ⇒there are 2n−(n−a)+1=n+a+1 ways  for given a  ⇒ for all a=0,...,n we have in total:  Σ_(a=0) ^n (n+1+a)=(n+1)^2 +((n(n+1))/2)  2) for a=n+1,...,2n  (b,c)∈{(0,3n−a),...,(3n−a,0)}  ⇒ there are 3n+1−a ways for given a  ⇒for all a=n+1,...,2n, in tot.:  Σ_(a=n+1) ^(2n) (3n+1−a)=Σ_(k=1) ^n (3n+1−(k+n))=  =Σ_(k=1) ^n (2n+1−k)=(2n+1)(n)−((n(n+1))/2)    3) total:  ways=(n+1)^2 +((n(n+1))/2)+(2n+1)n−((n(n+1))/2)=  =(n+1)^2 +2n^2 +n=  =n^2 +2n+1+2n^2 +n=  =3n^2 +3n+1
