Number of the flags have blue colour  equal to C_4 ^2 =((4!)/(2!2!))=6
$$\mathrm{Number}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{flags}\:\mathrm{have}\:\mathrm{blue}\:\mathrm{colour} \\ $$$$\mathrm{equal}\:\mathrm{to}\:\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{4}} ^{\mathrm{2}} =\frac{\mathrm{4}!}{\mathrm{2}!\mathrm{2}!}=\mathrm{6} \\ $$
