In how many ways, a cricket team of 11 players can be made from 15 players, if a particulars player is always chosen?

Correct Answer: 1001

Explanation:

Since, particular player is always chosen. It means that 11 - 1 = 10 players are selected out of the remaining 15 - 1 = 14 players.
∴ Required number of ways = 14C10
= 14 ! / (10! x 4!)
= (14 x 13 x 12 x 11) / (4 x 3 x 2 x 1)
= 7 x 13 x 11
= 91 x 11
= 1001
