Solution

The correct option is A

+ 45


There are only 2 ways possible.

1.Both students are included

2.Both students are not selected

If both students are selected we need to select only 2 out of remaining 10 students.

Number of ways = 10C2 = 45

If both are not selected, all four students are selected from remaining 10 students.

It can be done = 10C4 ways.

Total number of ways of selection = number of ways of both students are selected + number of ways of both are not selected = 10C4 + 45
