Solution
Clearly, 2 professors and 3 students are selected out of 10 professors and 20 students, respectively.
Required number of ways =\[{}^{10} C_2 \times^{20} C_3 = \frac{10}{2} \times \frac{9}{1} \times \frac{20}{3} \times \frac{19}{2} \times \frac{18}{1} = 51300\]
If a particular student is included, it means that 2 students are selected out of the remaining 19 students.
Required number of ways =\[{}^{19} C_2 \times^{10} C_2 = \frac{19}{2} \times \frac{18}{1} \times \frac{10}{2} \times \frac{9}{1} = 7695\]
