    confused with these

    1. In how many ways can 6 of 11 different trees be planted along the side of a river?

    2. In how many ways can a sample of 4 chocolates be selected from a box of 12 chocolates?

    ( i know both these are simple ones...but i am confused about the difference between these... pls enlighten me )
