Respuesta :

There are 45 different ways in which two of them can be selected as the best students in the class.

A combination in mathematics is a choice made from a group of separate elements where the order of the selection is irrelevant (unlike permutations).

A k-combination of a set S is officially defined as a subset of S's k unique elements.

Total number of students = 10

Number of students to be selected = 2

No. of ways = 10C2

                   = (10*9)/2

                   = 5*9

                   = 45

Hence, there are 45 different ways in which two of them can be selected as the best students in the class.
