  • When there is two lady, there is four gentleman in the committee. The ways to form the committee is (6C4×5C2)=150.
  • When there is three lady, there is three gentleman in the committee. The ways to form the committee is (6C3×5C3)=200.
  • When there is four lady, there is two gentleman in the committee. The ways to form the committee is (6C2×5C4)=75.
  • When there is five lady, there is one gentleman in the committee. The ways to form the committee is (6C1×5C5)=6.

The sum of the ways is 30+150+200+75+6=461

That is my answer, I don't know why the option doesn't match.
