Let's consider first what equation we must use:
⇒ use Combination Formula ⇒ [tex]._{n} C_{r}=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}[/tex]
⇒ where 'n' is the total number of items and 'r'
is the number of items to choose
Let's look at the problem:
Let's plug it in:
[tex]\frac{18!}{4!*(18-4)!} =\frac{18!}{4!*14!} =\frac{18*17*16*15}{4*3*2*1} =18*17*2*5=3060[/tex]
Thus there are 3060 ways
Answer: 3060 ways
Hope that helps!
