उत्तर

Total number of Persons = 12

Number of persons to be selected = 5

Out of 5, there is a chairperson

∴ Number of ways of selecting a chairperson = 12C1 = 12

Number of ways of selecting other 4 numbers out of remaining 11 persons = 11C4

∴ Total number of ways = 12C1 × 11C4

= `12 xx (11*10*9*8)/(4*3*2*1)`

= 12 × 330

= 3960

Hence, the required number of ways = 3960.
