Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The number of ways to select a committee of 4 from 12 members is calculated using the combination formula, which is C(n, k) = n! / [k!(n-k)!], where n is the total number of items, and k is the number of items to choose. Here, n=12 and k=4, so C(12, 4) = 12! / [4!(12-4)!] = 12! / (4!8!) = 495.
