The given information is:

Number of tickets =20

Number of teams =2

Number of tickets to each group =10

Pick first 10 tickets from 20 tickets, 

Total no. of ways of choosing is:

\frac{20 !}{(20-10) ! 10 !}=\frac{20 !}{10 ! 10 !}=184756

Pick last 10 tickets from 10 tickets are and the number of ways this can be done is 1 .

Since the two groups are similar, there is no differentiation between them. Therefore, we need to divide it with 2 !=2 .

The total numbers of ways:

\frac{184756}{2}=92378
