For the total possibility of 36 , fundamental counting principle is used. Total outcome is 6*6 =36
Similarly permutation counting tells selecting 2 out of 4 is basically 4C2 possibility when order is not
important. Hence, 4!/2!*2! = 6 possibilities

So assuming Charles is a male. Number of possibility of female committee remains same, nuber of male
in the committee now can be chosen as 5C2 -> 5!/3!*2! = 2*5 =10 Ways. Thus now, fundamental princile
will give us total possible committee as 10*6 = 60 possible committee.
