A tailor has to choose 6 out of 11 cut pieces.

So, he can choose it in { }^{11} C_6  ways.

Thus,

{ }^{11} C_6=\frac{11 !}{6 !(11-6) !}

{ }^{11} C_6=\frac{11 !}{6 ! 5 !}

{ }^{11} C_6=\frac{11 \times 10 \times 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2}{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2}\\

{ }^{11} C_6=462

 Therefore, the number of ways the tailor chooses the cut pieces is 462 ways.
