How many ways can you distribute 4 identical balls among 4 identical boxes?

The only difference is how many balls are in each box

 

you can have all in one box

you can have 3 in one box and 1 in any other

you can have 2 in 2 boxes

you can have 2 in one box and 1 in two there boxes

you can have 1 in each box.

 

That seems to be 5 ways.

I'm sure you could have done it all by yourself.

But you are welcome :)
