Permutation Notation:
1. Permutation of n objects taken r
a. P=n! / p! q! r!
at a time.
b. P=(n-1)!
2. Permutation of n objects taken
c. P(n,n)=n!
ALL at a time d. P(n,r)=n! / (n-r)!
3. Distinguishable permutation
4. Circular permutation

What is Combination?

In our previous activity, Combination is the

situation where order or arrangement is NOT
important.
Examples:

• Choosing 5 questions to answer out of 10 questions in a test

• Selecting 7 people to form a Student Affairs Committee
• Drawing a set of 6 numbers in a lottery containing numbers from 1
to 45
• Selecting 3 posters to hang out of 6 different posters
• Listing the elements of subsets of a given set

Guide Question:
1. Why do you think order or arrangement is not important in each
situation above?
Group Activity:

Get into groups of 4, Each group is tasked to

list as many situations as possible that
suggest a combination.
Individual Activity:

Tell whether the situation is combination or not.
