3 11.0 Concept Map Multiplication Rules The order of the objects in the chosen set is taken into consideration The order of the objects in the chosen set is taken into consideration Permutations Combinations If event A occurs in r ways and event B occurs in s ways The number of way is r x s The number of combination of r objects taken from n different objects given n C r n! n r! r! The number of permutation of n different objects is n! where n! = n( n-1)( n-2) The number of permutations of objects taken from n different object is given by n n! P r n r! 2

The number of ways arranging all the alphabets in the given word so that the first alphabet is a vowel b. The number of ways of arranging four of the alphabets in the given word so that last alphabet is S Example Solution: The way to arrange alphabet S = 1 d. Find the number of these arrangements in which the letters E and A are side by side. The way to arrange another 3 alphabets= 5 P 3 The number of arrangement = 1 x 5 P 3 = How many four- digit numbers can be formed without repetitions from the digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 7 if that number. a) are even number c) Consist of digit 5 b) are odd number d) more than
