Question

How many ways can a president, vis-president and treasurer be selected from a group of 15 students?

Answer 1

Answer:

455ways

Step-by-step explanation:

This is expressed as 15 C 3 ( C- combination)

The concept of combination is used when we talk about selection.

Now we are selecting 3 from a sample of 15

15 C 3 = 15! / (15-3)! 3! = 15 ×14×13×12!/12!×3×2

= 5 × 7 × 13 = 455ways
