Answer:
<h2>495 different ways</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use the combination rule to solve this questions since it bothers selection. Combination has to do with selection.
If r objects are to be selected from n pool of objects, this can be done in nCr number of ways.
nCr = n!/(n-r)!r!
If there are Eight committee members meeting in a room that has twelve chairs, the number of ways they can sit in the chair can be done in 12C8 number of ways.
12C8 = 12!/(12-8)!8!
12C8 = 12!/4!8!
12C8 = 12*11*10*9*8!/4*3*2*8!
12C8 = 12*11*10*9/4*3*2
12C8 = 11*10*9/2
12C8 = 11*5*9
12C8 = 495
<em>Hence the committee can sit in the chairs in 495 different ways</em>
The answer is 3 1/2 divided by 1 1/2 because those equal 7.
