A. 849
B. 105
C. 420
D. 210

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students = 15

Number of selected students = 2

Total number of ways to select r items from n items is

$^nC_r=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

Total number of ways to select 2 items from 15 items is

$^{15}C_{2}=\frac{15!}{2!(15-2)!}=105$

$^{15}C_{2}=\frac{15\times 14\times 13!}{2\times 1\times 13!}=105$

Therefore the correct option is B.
