(104)+(105), since we want the number of ways to pick 4 of them plus the number of ways to pick 5 of them.

It seems likely that you will have already seen the arrangement of these binomial coefficients into a triangular array – known as Pascal’s triangle. The thing that makes this triangle so nice and that leads to the strange name “binomial coefficients” for the number of k-combinations of an n-set is that you can use the triangle to (very quickly) compute powers of binomials.
