6 prizes. select 4: 6C4 =15
Give them..4!
thus 15*24=360

You are right, but that is only the first part of the problem. Now after selecting the 4 gifts from the 6 (6c4), we can distribute the 4 gifts to 4 people in 4! ways, so multiply by 4!. (So that it includes each one getting a different gift)

So 6c4*4!

4! is correct. but you have to give 4 prizes... and you have 6. so you have to select those 2 prizes also...

6 prizes is different.

First one can win any a prize of 6 prizes ---> 6 ways
Second one can win any a prize of 5 prizes remaining ---> 5 ways
Likewise, third one --->4 ways, and fourth one ---> 3 ways
So, 6*5*4*3 = 360 ways
