Reading Math Read 5! as “five factorial.” The factorial of a number is the product of all the whole numbers from the number down to 1. The factorial of 0 is defined to be 1. 5! = 5 • 4 • 3 • 2 • 1
If no letter is used more than once, there is only 1 combination of the first 3 letters of the alphabet. ABC, ACB, BAC, BCA, CAB, and CBA are considered to be the same combination of A, B, and C because the order does not matter. If no letter is used more than once, there are 10 combinations of the first 5 letters of the alphabet, when taken 3 at a time. To see this, look at the list of permutations on the next slide.
60 10 In the list of 60 permutations, each combination is repeated 6 times. The number of combinations is = 10.

10! 2!(10 – 2)! = 10 possible books 10! 2!8! 10 • 9 • 8 • 7 • 6 • 5 • 4 • 3 • 2 • 1 2 books chosen at a time (2 • 1)(8 • 7 • 6 • 5 • 4 • 3 • 2 • 1) Additional Example 3A: Finding Combinations Mary wants to join a book club that offers a choice of 10 new books each month. A. If Mary wants to buy 2 books, find the number of different pairs she can buy. 10C2 = = = 45 There are 45 combinations. This means that Mary can buy 45 different pairs of books.
10! 7!(10 – 7)! = 10 possible books 10! = 7!3! 10 • 9 • 8 • 7 • 6 • 5 • 4 • 3 • 2 • 1 7 books chosen at a time (7 • 6 • 5 • 4 • 3 • 2 • 1)(3 • 2 • 1) Additional Example 3B: Finding Combinations B. If Mary wants to buy 7 books, find the number of different sets of 7 books she can buy. 10C7 = = 120 There are 120 combinations. This means that Mary can buy 120 different sets of 7 books.
12! 4!(12 – 4)! = 12 possible DVDs 12! 4!8! 12 • 11 • 10 • 9 • 8 • 7 • 6 • 5 • 4 • 3 • 2 • 1 = 4 DVDs chosen at a time (4 • 3 • 2 • 1)(8 • 7 • 6 • 5 • 4 • 3 • 2 • 1) Try This: Example 3A Harry wants to join a DVD club that offers a choice of 12 new DVDs each month. A. If Harry wants to buy 4 DVDs, find the number of different sets he can buy. 12C4 = = 495
Try This: Example 3A Continued There are 495 combinations. This means that Harry can buy 495 different sets of 4 DVDs.
12! 11!(12 – 11)! = 12 possible DVDs 12! 11!1! 12 • 11 • 10 • 9 • 8 • 7 • 6 • 5 • 4 • 3 • 2 • 1 = 11 DVDs chosen at a time (11 • 10 • 9 • 8 • 7 • 6 • 5 • 4 • 3 • 2 • 1)(1) Try This: Example 3B B. If Harry wants to buy 11 DVDs, find the number of different sets of 11 DVDs he can buy. 12C11 = = 12
Try This: Example 3B Continued There are 12 combinations. This means that Harry can buy 12 different sets of 11 DVDs.
