your method is not wrong but just a little
mistake
you siad that no couple come in one match
you proceeded correctly
5............men
5..............women
so no of ways
5*4
correct
for selecting second team
you chose
4 men but you forgot that the wife you selected in first team has his husband out in the group still so you can ttake that men
4-1
no you canchoose 3 men
 
same for the men you choose first team
his wife is out
so 4-1=3
now no of way is 3-1=2 ...........leaving the wife of hus.       selected insecond team
 
5*4*3*2=120
 
 
but you see that teams can be interchanged
120/2=60
 
cheer up!!!!

those who dont believe in god closes the gates of miracles in their life
