PERMUTATIONS AND

COMBINATIONS
LESSON OBJECTIVES
 Explain the difference between permutations and combinations in various
word problem scenarios.
 Analyze complex word problems to break them down into smaller parts
and identify the correct approach using permutations or combinations.
 Appreciate the importance of permutations and combinations in real-
world problem-solving.
 Organize strategies and solutions to permutations and combinations word
problems with a clear and logical structure.
 Independently apply the correct permutation or combination formula to
solve word problems accurately.
 Solve complex word problems involving permutations and combinations
with accuracy and efficiency.
PERMUTATIONS
The arrangement of objects in which order is important.
𝑛! 𝑛 𝑃 𝑛=𝑛!
PERMUTATIONS OF OBJECTS TAKEN 𝑛 𝑃𝑟=
( 𝑛− 𝑟 ) !
AT A TIME
𝑛 𝑃 0=1 𝑛 𝑃 1=𝑛

CIRCULAR PERMUTATION (𝑛 −1)!


𝑃= ( 𝑛− 1 ) ! 𝑃=
2

𝑛!
DISTINGUISHABLE PERMUTATION 𝑃=
𝑛1 ! 𝑛2 ! 𝑛3 ! … 𝑛𝑘 !
COMBINATIONS
 An arrangement of objects with no repetitions and
the order is NOT important.

𝒏!
𝒏 𝑪 𝒓=
𝒓 ! ( 𝒏−𝒓 ) !
