Counting Principle
Fundamental Counting Principle
If the number of ways to perform a certain task equals n way, the number of ways
to perform another task equals m way, then the number of ways to perform the first
and second tasks together = m ×n ways
1) 2 trousers and 3 shirts, how many ways can you wear
them?
2) How many ways can a different four –digit even
number be formed from the numbers {2, 3, 4, 7}
3) How many ways can a four –digit even number be
formed from the numbers {2, 3, 4, 7}
4) How many different three -digit numbers can be
formed from the numbers {0, 1, 2, 3, 4}?
