No. of ways to choose 3 of the first 4 problems = 4C3 = 4
now he have to choose 4 from remaining 10 problems.

so, no. of ways to choose 4 = 10C4 = 210

total no. of ways to choose problems = 4*210 = 840

Sometimes there may be typing mistake in solution of a problem, so please ignore it. Understand the concept and try the problem yourself.
