There are 11 women and 9 men in a certain club. If the club is to select a committee of 2 women and 2 men, how many different such committees are possible?
Choose the correct choice from the following choices:
A) 120
B) 720
C) 1,060
D) 1,520
E) 1,980
these are two independent events. meaning picking men from a group of men has no effect on picking women from group of women. so you have to multiply here.   11c2*9c2 =1980   Answer is 1,980.
