What is a combination?
Combinations are the way of selecting objects or elements from a group of objects or collections, in such a way the order of the objects does not matter.
We know that the formula is given as
[tex]\rm ^nC_r[/tex]
where n is the total sample and r is the selected sample from the total sample.
24 qualified students are available for tutoring. Then the number of ways that the principal chooses 3 students.
[tex]\rm ^{24}C_3 = \dfrac{24!}{21!*3!} = \dfrac{24*23*22}{3*2} = 2024[/tex]
Thus, the number of ways a principal can select 3 students from 24 qualified students is 2024.
