Freshmen: ₁₂C₂ \frac{12!}{2!(12 - 2)!} = \frac{12!}{2!*10!} = \frac{12 * 11 * 10!}{2*10!} = \frac{12 * 11}{2} = 6 * 11 = 66

Sophomore: ₁₇C₂  = \frac{17!}{2!(17 - 2)!} = \frac{17!}{2!*15!} = \frac{17 * 16 * 15!}{2 * 15!} = \frac{17 * 16}{2}  = 17 * 8 = 136

Juniors: ₁₆C₃ = \frac{16!}{3!(16 - 3)!} = \frac{16!}{3!*13!} = \frac{16 * 15 * 14 * 13!}{3 * 2 * 13!} = \frac{16 * 15 * 14}{2 * 3} = 8 * 5 * 14 = 560

Seniors: ₂₀C₃ = \frac{20!}{3!(20 - 3)!} = \frac{20!}{3!*17!} = \frac{20 * 19 * 18 * 17!}{3*2*17!} = \frac{20 * 19 * 18}{2 * 3} = 10 * 19 * 6 = 1140

₁₂C₂ * ₁₇C₂  * ₁₆C₃  * ₂₀C₃

66  * 136 *  560 * 1140 = 5,730,278,400

Answer: 5,730,278,400

Compare and contrast the absolute value of a real number to that of a complex number.
sveticcg [70]
