Question

A committee is to consist of 4 members. If there are 7 men and 11 women available to serve on the committee, how many different committees can be formed? A.8,568 B.2,380 C. 77 D.3,060

Answer 1

Since there are no restrictions, this makes it easier. First, let's add up the number of men and women to get the total amount of people,

7 + 11 = 18

The committee only requires 4 people, so from the 18 people we have, 4 is chosen. Hence,

18C4 = 3060

Therefore your answer is D!

Hope this helped!
