Answer:

7920 possible outcome

Explanation:

There are 4 Board of Directors positions open.

2 will be for men, 2 will be for women.

Totak number of candidates= 20

Total men= 11

Total women= 9

The probability

=(11C2*9C2)/20C4

= (55*36)/4845

=1980/4845

= 0.41

Total outcome = (11P2 * 9P2)

=110 * 72

= 7920
