JEE MainMathematicsModerateBinomial Theorem

The coefficient of t^4 in the expansion of
(1−t61−t)3\left( \frac{1 - t^{6}}{1 - t} \right)^{3} is

Show answer and solution
coefficient of t^4 in (1 - t^6)^3 (1 - t)^-3
= coefficient of t^4 in (1 - 3t^6 + 3t^12 - t^18) (1 - t)^-3

= 1 × ^3 + 4-1^C_4 = ^6C_4 = 15
