Question

    A selection of 7 cars must be made from a total of 13

    cars for an exhibition. However, one specific car must always be included in the selection. If the cars are chosen one by one, determine the total number of ways in which this selection can be made.
    A 848 × 6! Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 924 × 7! Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 544 × 7! Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 712 × 6! Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
