Permutation and
combination

4
Permutation
• In mathematics, permutation relates to the act of
arranging all the members of a set into some
sequence or order. 
• In other words, if the set is already ordered, then
the rearranging of its elements is called the
process of permuting.

5
Representation of Permutation

We can represent permutation

• P n, k

6
Permutation Formula
The general permutation formula is expressed in the
following way.

n
Pr = (n!) / (n-r)!
Where:
• n – the total number of elements in a set
• r – the number of selected elements arranged in a
specific order
• ! – factorial

7
Factorial
• The product of all positive integers less than or
equal to a given positive integer and denoted by
that integer and an exclamation point. 
Example 1: Example 2: Example 3:
1. 3! 1. 7! 1. 10!
Solution: Solution: Solution:
1×2×3. 1 × 2 × 3 × 4 × 5 × 6 × 7. 1 × 2 × 3 × 4 × 5 × 6 × 7 × 8 × 9 ×10
=6 = 5040 = 3, 628, 800

Rules in Permutation

9
Rules 1: Permutation when repetition is not
allowed
If n is a positive integer and r is a whole number, such that r <
n, then P(n, r) represents the number of all possible
arrangements or permutations of n distinct objects taken r at a
time.

10
Rules 1: Permutation of n different objects (when
repetition is not allowed
Example 1:
How many 3 letter words with or without meaning can be formed out of
the letters of the word SWING when repetition of letters is not allowed?
Given: Solution:
n= = 5, as the word
SWING has 5 letters
r= 3,  Since we have to
frame 3 letter words
with or without meaning
and without repetition

11
Rules 1: Permutation of n different objects (when
repetition is not allowed
Example 2:
In the third race at Santa Anita Park, 12 horses are in the race. In how
many ways can the horses finish 1st, 2nd, and 3rd?
Given:
n= = 12
r= 3

12
Rules 1: Permutation of n different objects (when
repetition is not allowed
Solution:

13
Rules 2: Permutation when taken all together

The special permutation rule states that

nPr = n!
14
Rules 2: Permutation of n different objects (when
repetition is not allowed
Example 3:
Andrea is setting the six-digit lock. She is considering of different ways
to use the digits 6, 2, 4, 1, 3, and 8.

Given:
n= 6
r=6

15
Rules 2: Permutation of n different objects (when
repetition is not allowed
Solution:

nPr = n!

16
Rules 3: circular permutation
The number of ways to arrange distinct objects along a
fixed (cannot be picked up out of the plane and turned
over)circle can be rotated.

P=(n-1)!

17
Rules 3: circular permutation
Example 3:
If we have 3 persons and if we want to arrange them in a circular
fashion.

Given:
n= 3

18
Rules 3: circular permutation
Solution:

P=(n-1)!

19
Rules 4: Permutation of multi-sets
Permutation of n different objects when r1 objects among ‘n’ objects are similar, r2 objects
of the second kind are similar, r3 objects of the third kind are similar ……… and so on,
Pr objects of the rth kind are similar and the remaining of all are of a different kind.

20
Rules 4: Permutation of multi-sets
Example 3:
Find the numbers of different ways of placing 8 marbles in a row
that 3 are red, 2 are green, 2 yellow, and 1 black is
Given:
n= 8
r1= 3
r2= 2
r3 = 2
r4 = 1

21
Rules 4: Permutation of multi-sets
Solution: Given:
n= 8
r1= 3
r2= 2
r3 = 2
r4 = 1

22
Rules 5: Permutation when repetition is allowed
• When the number of object is “n,” and we have “r” to be the selection of
object, then; Choosing an object can be in n different ways (each time).
• Thus, the permutation of objects when repetition is allowed will be equal to,
n × n × n × ……(r times) = nr

𝑟
𝑃 =𝑛

23
Rules 5: Permutation when repetition is
allowed
Example 3:
How many 3 letter words with or without meaning can be formed out of the
letters of the word SMOKE when repetition of words is allowed?

Given:
n= 5
r=3

24

combination
• A combination is a mathematical technique that determines
the number of possible arrangements in a collection of items
where the order of the selection does not matter.
• In combinations, you can select the items in any order.

32
Combinations

Alex would like to invite 9 friends to go on a trip but has room for 6 of them. In
how many ways can they be chosen?

n= 9
r=6
