Question

can someone remind me what the formula is for nPr and nCr?

Answer 1

\[nPr = \dfrac{n!}{(n - r)!} \ \ \ \ \quad nCr = \dfrac{n!}{(n - r)!r!}\]

Answer 2

Where \(n! = n \times (n - 1) \times (n - 2) \cdots 1\)

Answer 3

oh right...my mind just blanked...
Thank you @ParthKohli

Answer 4

For example:\[9C4 = \dfrac{9!}{(9 - 4)!4!} = \dfrac{9!}{5!4!} = \dfrac{9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6}{4 \times 3 \times 2}\]

Answer 5
