From 6 seniors and 4 juniors, 4 members are chosen with exactly 3 seniors and 1 junior. How many selections are possible?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 80

The governing concept is the multiplication principle combined with combinations. Because the selection must contain exactly 3 seniors and exactly 1 junior, choose these groups separately. The number of ways to choose 3 seniors from 6 is C(6,3) = 6×5×4/(3×2×1) = 20. The number of ways to choose 1 junior from 4 is C(4,1) = 4. Every senior selection can be paired with every junior selection, so the total is 20×4 = 80. Therefore, option B is correct. Adding the groups would be wrong because both choices are required, not alternatives. Permutations are also unnecessary because the final group has no order; only its members matter.
