If order matters and a number cannot be repeated, then there are 16x15x14x13 = 43680 different combinations. If order does not matter then you must divide by the number of ways you can rearrage the same 4 numbers i.e. divide by 4x3x2x1=24 so you can select 4 numbers from a group of 16 in 43680/24 = 1820 ways.

In mathematical terms there are 43680 permutations of 16 numbers taken 4 at a time and 1820 combinations of 16 number taken 4 at a time.
