what is
C(6,4) * C(12,4) ?
C(6,4) is the notation we use to find the number of ways you can CHOOSE 4 from 6 items
if the order does not matter. This is called a combination.
C(n,r) = n!/(r!9n-r)!)

sometimes written as nCr

If you are getting these kind of questions, you MUST be familiar with this terminology.
