You volunteer to help drive children at a charity event to the​ zoo, but you can fit only 6 of the 16 children present in your van. How many different groups of 6 children can you​ drive?
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "The 1st choice is 1 of 16.
\n" ); document.write( "Then 1 of 15, then 14, etc.
\n" ); document.write( "---> 16*15*14 ... 11
\n" ); document.write( "The product of those 6 numbers.
\n" ); document.write( "But, choosing A, B, C, D, E and F is the same as choosing A, F, C, etc.
\n" ); document.write( "6*5*4*3*2*1 different ways = 720 ways for any combination.
\n" ); document.write( "Divide the big number by 720.
\n" ); document.write( "That's it.
\n" ); document.write( "
