    48620

    Step-by-step explanation:

    There are 6 fruits and 18 non-fruits. Cory wants to buy all 6 fruits, and 9 of the 18 non-fruits.

    The number of ways he can choose 6 fruits from 6 is ₆C₆ = 1.

    The number of ways he can choose 9 non-fruits from 18 is ₁₈C₆ = 48620.

    The total number of combinations is 1 * 48620 = 48620.
