The order in which the people are selected is not important, hence, the combination formula is used to solve this question.
[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by:
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
In this problem, 11 people are taken from a set of 60, hence:
[tex]C_{60,11} = \frac{60!}{11!49!} = 342700125300[/tex]
