Question Two companies have sent representatives to an industry conference. The first company sent 14 representatives and the second company sent 18 representatives. Only 23 will be given the chance to make presentations. What is the probability that exactly 11 representatives from the first company and 12 representatives from the second company will be chosen? Select the correct answer below: frac{inom{14}{11}inom{18}{12}}{inom{32}{23}}
