Equation for combinations
How do you calculate the number of possible combinations?
The formula for combinations is generally n! / (r! (n — r)!), where n is the total number of possibilities to start and r is the number of selections made. In our example, we have 52 cards; therefore, n = 52. We want to select 13 cards, so r = 13.
How many combinations of 4 items are there?
You multiply these choices together to get your result: 4 x 3 x 2 (x 1) = 24. Combinations and permutations are often confused by students – they are related, but they mean different things and can lead to totally different interpretations of situations and questions.
What is the combination rule?
If the order doesn’t matter then we have a combination, if the order do matter then we have a permutation. One could say that a permutation is an ordered combination. The number of permutations of n objects taken r at a time is determined by the following formula: P(n,r)=n!
What is nPr formula?
nPr(n, r) The number of possibilities for choosing an ordered set of r objects (a permutation) from a total of n objects. Definition: nPr(n,r) = n! / (n-r)! nCr(n, r)
How many combinations of 50 numbers are there?

How many combinations of 12 numbers are there?

How do you solve for nCr formula?
The combinations formula is: nCr = n! / (n – r)! r! n = the number of items.
What is the permutation rule?
The special permutation rule states that anything permute itself is equivalent to itself factorial. Example: (3)3 = 3!
How many combinations of 7 numbers are there?
127
How many combinations of 2 numbers are there?
So that means you need to know how many different permutations there are for each combination. If there are two numbers, there are two permutations per combination. Divide the possible permutations by number of permutations per combination: 2450 / 2 = 1225.
