24 ways to choose a captain

then 23! / (17! x 6!) ways to chose a six-person team.

So the solution is 24 x 23! / (17! x 6!) = 2,422,728.

Or choose a seven person team first, then choose a captain

24! / (17! x 7!) x 7 = 2,422,728.

faulty parallelism is a construction in which two or more parts of a sentence are equivalent in meaning but not grammatically similar in form.

the correct version of this faulty parallelism in the sentence is:

the hikers knew that the hike was six miles, that it usually required the entire day, and it would not be wise to start after 10: 00 a.m.

the problem is the last sentence, the first two have a basic subject+verb+object structure.

so, to give a proper balance to the structure, or better said, to give a parallel structure, we must write a basic s+v+o structure in all three sentences:

the hikers knew that the hike was six miles, that it usually required the entire day, and it would not be wise to start after 10: 00 a.m.

is it multiple
