Evaluate the combination:
7C5
A unique order or arrangement
nCr = | n! |
r!(n - r)! |
where n is the number of items
r is the unique arrangements.
7C5 2 | 7! |
5!(7 - 5)! |
n! = n * (n - 1) * (n - 2) * .... * 2 * 1
n! = 7!
7! = 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1
7! = 5,040
(n - r)! = (7 - 5)!
(7 - 5)! = 2!
2! = 2 x 1
2! = 2
r! = 5!
5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1
5! = 120
7C5 = | 5,040 |
120 x 2 |
7C5 = | 5,040 |
240 |
