hello guys its puneet

	The factorial function (symbol: !) just means to multiply a series of descending natural numbers. Examples: 4! = 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 24 7! = 7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 5,040 1! = 1
Note: it is generally agreed that 0! = 1. It may seem funny that multiplying no numbers together gets you 1, but it helps simplify a lot of equations.

FORMULA IS

where n is the number of things to choose from, and you choose r of them (No repetition, order matters)

Our "order of 3 out of 16 pool balls example" would be:

16!	=	16!	=	20,922,789,888,000	= 3,360
(16-3)!		13!		6,227,020,800

(which is just the same as: 16 × 15 × 14 = 3,360)

How many ways can first and second place be awarded to 10 people?

10!	=	10!	=	3,628,800	= 90
(10-2)!		8!		40,320

(which is just the same as: 10 × 9 = 90)

Example

So, pool ball example (now without order) is:

16!	=	16!	=	20,922,789,888,000	= 560
3!(16-3)!		3!×13!		6×6,227,020,800

Or you could do it this way:

16×15×14	=	3360	= 560
3×2×1		6

So remember, do the permutation, then reduce by a further "r!"

... or better still ...

Remember the Formula!
