The number of ways to choose 3 members from a group of 12 is calculated using the combination formula, which is C(n, k) = n! / [k!(n - k)!], where n is the total number of items, and k is the number of items to choose. Here, n = 12 and k = 3, so C(12, 3) = 12! / [3!(12 - 3)!] = 12! / (3!9!) = (12×11×10) / (3×2×1) = 220.
