Total no of selections = 12*4 = 48
As each student selected 2,
Total no of students = 48/2 = 24

Option D

You can solve this without any complex Math [ i.e. if you don't want PnC concepts here]

Suppose we have 6 pairs (2 *6 = 12 songs)

Let, first pair has 2 songs A and B. Since, we already know that each song is selected 4 times, you can assume that 'A' and 'B' were selected by 4 students. i.e. 1 pair is selected by 4 random students.

Now, that pair is out of next selection. we have 5 more pairs left. Just multiply 5 by 4.

Total = 20 + 4 [ of first selection ]

Your answer = [spoiler](24)[/spoiler]
