3 x 4 over 4

12/4 +1/4 = 13/4

Top times top over bottom times bottom.

Answer:

3003 number of 5-member chess teams can be chosen from 15 interested players.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of the interested players = 15

To Find:

Number of 5-member chess teams that can be chosen = ?

Solution:

Combinations are a way to calculate the total outcomes of an event where order of the outcomes does not matter. To calculate combinations, we will use the formula $nCr = \frac{n!}{r!(n - r)!}$

where

n represents the total number of items,

r represents the number of items being chosen at a time.

Now we have n = 15 and r = 5

Substituting the values,

$15C_5 = \frac{15!}{5!(15- 5)!}$

$15C_5 = \frac{15!}{5!(10)!}$

$15C_5 = \frac{15\times \times 14 \times 13 \times 12 \times 11 \times 10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1 }{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1(10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1)}$
