Question

The number of ways to select 6 volley ball players out of 10 players so that 2 particular players are excluded is

• A. 56
• B. 55
• C. 27
• D. 28

Answer 1

The correct option is D 28

The number of ways selecting 6 out of 10 so that 2 particular players are always excluded is ${}^{10-2}{\text{C}}_6$
${}^{10-2}{\text{C}}_6$ $=\frac{8!}{6!\times 2!}$
$=28$
