Options

  • 265

  • 263

  • 275

MCQ

Solution

264

Among 14 players, 5 are bowlers.
A team of 11 players has to be selected such that at least 4 bowlers are included in the team.

\[\therefore \text{Required number of ways} = \ ^{5}{}{C}_4 \times \ ^{9}{}{C}_7 + \ ^{5}{}{C}_5 \times \ ^{9}{}{C}_6 \]
\[ = 180 + 84 \]
\[ = 264\]
