Question 889289
<pre>
We have 60 things, and we are to choose 5.  That's

60 choose 5 = 60C5, also sometimes written C(60,5) or {{{(matrix(2,1,60,5))}}},

computed {{{(60*59*58*57*56)/(5*4*3*2*1)}}} 

(5 factors in the numerator, 5 factors in the denominator)

Then the entire denominator always cancels entirely into the numerator,
and you end up with a huge number of ways

5,461,512 = five million four hundred sixty one thousand five hundred twelve.
