The teacher of a senior class needs to choose 4 members of the class to represent the school. If there are 10 seniors in the class how many different ways are there for the teacher to choose 4 (on no particular order)?

Because we are given that the 4 members are to be chosen from 10 senior students in no particular order, the concept that could be used to answer the question is "COMBINATION".

From 10 students, 4 are to be chosen and it can be expressed as "10C4" or "combination of 10 taken 4". The numerical value of the expression is 210.


Thus, the answer is 210.
