it is a combination: 9!/4!=9 x 8 x 7 x 6
There are 9*8*7 = 504 ways.
The number of ways is 18C5 = 18!/(5!*13!) = 8,568 ways.
You can choose 4 people in (17 x 16 x 15 x 14) = 57,120 ways.But there are (4 x 3 x 2) = 24 ways to pick the same 4 people, so there are only57,120/24 = 2,380 different groups of 4 people that you can end up with.
First in line can be any of the 12, second can be any of the remaining 11, third any of 10 and fourth any of 9 so 12 x 11 x 10 x 9 ie 11880 different ways
