Answer 2

Answer: First option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of students = 16

Number of students in a group = 3

We need to find the number of different groups of 3 that the principal have to pick from.

We need to select 3 from 16 so, we will use "Combination":

So, the number of different groups would be

$^{16}C_3\\\\=560$

Hence, first option is correct.
