Step 1
I have assumed that what is meant is:
"How may ways can a group of 4 students be extracted from a group of 30 students, when the order of extraction is significant?"
In this case:
There are 30 candidates for the first selection
For each of the first selections there are 29 candidates for the second selection
For each of these first and second selections there are 28 candidates for the third selection.
For each of these first, second, and third selections there are 27 candidates for the fourth selection.
Step 2
Therefore there are XXX 30 × 29 × 28 × 27 = 657 , 720 possible selections.
