6men and 5 women can also be changed so it can be 11!*11760.

Don't we have to divide (8C5*10C6) by total no of selection that is 18C11?

Please help me to understand why the deduction (the second step) is done?

The second step involves the formula of nCr,
which is;
nCr = n!/(n-r)!r!.
which is;
nCr = n!/(n-r)!r!.
