I’m afraid the guy above is wrong. It’s a combination, not a permutation problem. It doesn’t matter the order of the members of the club. A group made with Juan and Maria would be the same group made with Maria and Juan. So the answer would be half what he said, or 66.
Or you can simply put 12C2 in your calculator.
