Evaluate the following permutation

9P5

Permutation Definition:

An order or arrangement

Permutation Formula:

nPr  =  n!
  (n - r)!

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

Plug in n = 9 and r = 5

9P5  2  9!
  (9 - 5)!

Factorial Formula:

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

Calculate n!:

n! = 9!

9! = 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

9! = 362,880

Calculate (n - r)!:

(n - r)! = (9 - 5)!

(9 - 5)! = 4!

4! = 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

4! = 24

Calculate 9P5:

9P5  =  362,880
  24

9P5 = 15,120
