I.OBJECTIVES
A. Content Standard The learner demonstrates understanding of key concepts of
combinatorics and probability.
B. Performance Standard The learner is able to use precise counting technique and probability in
formulating conclusions and making decisions.
Subtask:
That is, n! = n x (n – 1) x … x 1.
Note: 0! = 1
C. ENGAGE Activity 1.1:
Instruction: Evaluate the following.
1. 5!
2. 7!
3. 15!
Activity 1.2:
Instruction: Simplify the following.
7!
1.
3!
15!
2.
8!
Solution
=4x3x2x1
= 4!
= 24
Solution
= 7!
= 5040
2. Tree Diagram
- It is commonly used in mathematics in order to calculate the
number of possible outcomes of a particular event.
Sample problem: “If there are 3 roads from Town A to Town B and
3 roads from Town B to Town C, in how many ways can one go
from Town A to Town C, without passing the road twice?”
Solution:
Or using the Fundamental counting principle it will be, 3 x 4 = 12.
Solution:
Using FCP
= 4.3.2.1
= 4!
= 24
