there are 11,880 ways to choose

Answer:

495ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are selecting 4 members as part of the executive out of total of 12 more members, this can be done in 12C4 ways since combination has to do with selection.

Generally, nCr = n!/(n-r)!r!

12C4 = 12!/(12-4)!4!

12C4 = 12!/8!4!

12C4 = 12×11×10×9×8!/8!4!

12C4 = 12×11×10×9/4×3×2

12C4 = 495ways

Selection of President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer out of the members can be done in 495ways
