9 Permutations of 4
Evaluate the following permutation
9P4
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 = 4
| 9P4 2 | 9! |
| (9 - 4)! |
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 - 4)!
(9 - 4)! = 5!
5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1
5! = 120
Calculate 9P4:
| 9P4 = | 362,880 |
| 120 |
9P4 = 3,024

=PERMUT(9,4)What is the Answer?
9P4 = 3,024
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)!
