The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

$ \frac{^{8}{{C}_{0}}}{6}{{-}^{8}}{{C}_{1}}{{+}^{8}}{{C}_{2}}.6{{-}^{8}}{{C}_{3}}{{6}^{2}}+....{{+}^{8}}{{C}_{8}}{{6}^{7}} $
$ =\frac{1}{6}{{[}^{3}}{{C}_{0}}-{{6}^{8}}{{C}_{1}}+{{6}^{2}}{{\,}^{8}}{{C}_{2}}-{{6}^{3}}{{\,}^{8}}{{C}_{3}}+....+{{6}^{8}}{{\,}^{6}}{{C}_{8}}] $
$ =\frac{1}{6}[{{(1-6)}^{8}}]=\frac{{{5}^{8}}}{6} $

Binomial Theorem

The binomial theorem formula is used in the expansion of any power of a binomial in the form of a series. The binomial theorem formula is 

Properties of Binomial Theorem

  • The number of coefficients in the binomial expansion of (x + y)n is equal to (n + 1).
  • There are (n+1) terms in the expansion of (x+y)n.
  • The first and the last terms are xn and yn respectively.
  • From the beginning of the expansion, the powers of x, decrease from n up to 0, and the powers of a, increase from 0 up to n.
  • The binomial coefficients in the expansion are arranged in an array, which is called Pascal's triangle. This pattern developed is summed up by the binomial theorem formula.
