Answer: 8648640 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of positions = 7

Number of eligible candidates = 13

This can be done by solving the question using the combination Formula for selection in which we use the combination formula to choose 7 candidates amomg the possible 13.

The combination Formula is denoted as:

nCr = n! / (n-r)! * r!

Where n = total number of possible options.

r = number of options to be selected.

Hence, selecting 7 candidates from 13 becomes:

13C7 = 13! / (13-7)! * 7!

13C7 = 1716.

Considering the order they can come in, they can come in 7! Orders. We multiply this order by the earlier answer we calculated. This give: 1716 * 7! = 8648640

The correct answer is 82% of 50 (41) / 170% of 30 (51) /65% of 80 (52)

Explanation:

The first step to know whether a value is greater than another is to find the value each percentage represents depending on the total. This process is shown below.

1. 65% of 80- This implies 80 is 100% and 85% needs to be found. Use the following formula:

80 / 100 = 0.8 x 65 = 52 or the total number divided by 100 and multiplied by the percentage you want to know

2. 82% of 50 - Repeat the same process

50 / 100 = 0.5 x 82 = 41

3. 170% of 30

30 / 100 = 0.3 x 170 = 51

4. Finally organize the values

82% of 50 (41)

170% of 30 (51)

65% of 80 (52)
