Best answer

Ten students are to be selected for a project from a class of 30 students.

Case I:

If 4 students join the project, then from remaining 26 students, rest of the 6 students are to be selected

Which can be done in 26C6

= 230230 ways

Case II:

If 4 students does not join the project, then from remaining 26 students, all the 10 students are to be selected.

Which can be done in 26C10

= 5311735 ways.

∴ Required number of selections = 26C6 + 26C10

 = 230230 + 5311735

 = 5541965
