What is permutation?

The formula for permutation is given as:

Permutation = [tex]\frac{n!}{n - r!}[/tex]

Where:

  • n is the total number of objects = 9
  • r is the number selected = 3

Substitute into the formula

Permutation = [tex]\frac{9!}{9 - 3!}[/tex]

P( 9, 3) = [tex]\frac{9!}{6!}[/tex]

P( 9, 3) = [tex]\frac{362880}{720}[/tex]

P( 9, 3) = 504 ways

Thus, the number of ways of she can do it is 504 ways
