Candace has 4 trophies to place on a shelf. How many possible arrangements of all 4 trophies are there?
4c4? huh? Is that multipy?
wait wait the first trophy has 4 chocies the second trophy has 3 chocies
so it would be 4 X 3 X 2 X 1
since after a trophy is placed one place would be filled
@UsukiDoll :)
This is confusing me haha
suppose we have four trophies namely A B C and D and four places namely 1 2 3 4 now let trophy B occupy place no 3
statistics and probability ... <--- this user is not an expert at this topic
so now we are left with : Trophy : A C D Place : 1 2 4 now trophy A can occupy any one the three places from 1 2 4
so first trophy B had 4 choices AND trophy A has 3 choices
are you getting the explanation?
Its still confusing the H-E double hockey sticks out of me.
