In how many ways can a team of 5 Batsman and 5 Bowler be selected out of a total of 10 Batsman and 10 Bowler?

In how many ways can a team of 5 Batsman and 5 Bowler be selected out of a total of 10 Batsman and 10 Bowler? Correct Answer 63504

Given:

Total number of Batsman = 10

Total number of Batsman to be selected = 5

Total number of Bowler = 10

Number of Bowler to be selected = 5

Concept used:

nCr = n!/

Where,

r = Men selected from total

n = Total men

Calculation:

The Number of ways in which 5 Batsman can be selected from 10 Batsman = 10C5 

⇒ 10!/

⇒ 10!/(5! × 5!)

⇒ (10 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6 × 5!)/(5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 × 5!)

⇒ (10 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6)/(5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1) = 252

The Number of ways in which 5 Bowler can be selected from 10 Bowler = 10C5 

⇒ 10!/

⇒ 10!/(5! × 5!)

⇒ (10 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6 × 5!)/(5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 × 5!)

⇒ (10 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6)/(5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1) = 252

The Number of ways in which 5 Batsman and 5 Bowler can be chosen = 10C5 × 10C5

⇒ 252 × 252 = 63504

∴ The number of ways in which 5 Batsman and 5 Bowler can be chosen is 63504
