REVIEW
Based on our past
discussions, what are the
three types of permutations?
• LINEAR PERMUTATION
• DISTINGUISHABLE
PERMUTATION
What is the formula of
linear permutation, or the
permutation of n objects
𝑛!
𝑃 ( 𝑛 , 𝑟 )=
(𝑛 −𝑟 )!
What is the formula of
distinguishable
permutation?
𝑛 !
𝑃=
𝑝 ! 𝑞 ! 𝑟 ! …
What is the formula of
circular permutation?
𝑃 = ( 𝑛− 1 ) ! 𝑃=
( 𝑛 −1) !

COMBINATION
Combination is a selection
made from a group of items
without the importance of
order. It is denoted by 𝑛
C (n ,r ), nC r , C n ,r , or 𝐶 𝑟 .
It is read as “the combination
of n object taken r at a time”
or “n choose r” and is given
using the formula, 𝑛 !
C (n , r )=
𝑟 ! ( 𝑛 −𝑟 ) !
where:
• C refers to the number of
combinations.
• n refers to the total number of
objects in a set.
• r refers to the number of objects
selected from the set.
