Evaluate the combination:

5C20

Combination Definition:

A unique order or arrangement

Combination Formula:

nCr  =  n!
  r!(n - r)!

where n is the number of items
r is the unique arrangements.

Plug in n = 5 and r = 20

5C20  2  5!
  20!(5 - 20)!

Factorial Formula:

n! = n * (n - 1) * (n - 2) * .... * 2 * 1

Calculate the numerator n!:

n! = 5!

5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

5! = 120

Calculate (n - r)!:

(n - r)! = (5 - 20)!

(5 - 20)! = -15!

-15! =

-15! = 1

Calculate r!:

r! = 20!

20! = 20 x 19 x 18 x 17 x 16 x 15 x 14 x 13 x 12 x 11 x 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

20! = 2,432,902,008,176,640,000

Calculate 5C20

5C20  =  120
  2,432,902,008,176,640,000 x 1

5C20  =  120
  2,432,902,008,176,640,000

5C20 = 0

How does the Permutations and Combinations Calculator work?
Free Permutations and Combinations Calculator - Calculates the following:
Number of permutation(s) of n items arranged in r ways = nPr
Number of combination(s) of n items arranged in r unique ways = nCr including subsets of sets
This calculator has 2 inputs.

What 2 formulas are used for the Permutations and Combinations Calculator?

nPr=n!/r!
nCr=n!/r!(n-r)!
