It is Tim's 4 th birthday and he has a cake with 4 candles on it. Tim makes a wish and tries to blow out the candles. Every time he blows, Tim blows out some number of candles between 1 and the number that remain, including both 1 and that number. How many ways are there for Tim to blow out the candles on the cake?

It sounds like your asking for the number of ways you can partition the integer 4using the digits 1, 2, 3, and 4(1,1,1,1)(2,1,1) and it's other 2 permutations(2,2)(1,3) and it's other permutation(4)for a total of 1+3+1+2+1=8
