Answer 2

Answer: There are 1820 ways to choose the 12 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total number of students are there = 16

Number of students a science teacher needs to choose = 12

We need to find the number of ways:

We would use "Combination" to find the number of ways :

So, Number of ways would be

$^{16}C_{12}=1820$

Hence, there are 1820 ways to choose the 12 students.
