There are 19 people total, and groups of four are being asked of us. We can use the formula for permutations or combinations.
Permutations:
Combinations:
Where in both scenarios, there are <em>n</em> objects being chosen at <em>r</em> times.
19 P 4 is 93024
19 C 4 is 3876
It all depends on whether order matters with group placement; if it does, your answer is 93024, if not, then your answer is 3876.
