.

The problem is/was formulated in a very bad style / (manner).

Actually, there are TWO DIFFERENT questions in it:

            (a) the sequence in which the visits to the six selected cities are scheduled is also of concern.

It is unclear here to me if it is a question, at all . . .

            (b) How many different sequences are there of six cities chosen from the total of 10 cities.

In my understanding, it is a typical case when the former English teacher tries to formulate a Math problem.

If you want to get an answer, then please formulate clearly your question/questions.
