What is combination?

Combination deals with the way in which a arrangement can be made from a particular lot. In  this case, we want to select  a president, minister of Arts, minister of PE department, and minister of Science from a body of 24 students.

Hence;

24C4 = 24!/4! (24 - 4)! = 24!/4!20!

So;

24 * 23 * 22 * 21 * 20!/20! * 4 * 3 * 2*1

= 24 * 23 * 22 * 21 / 4 * 3 * 2*1

= 10,626 ways
