  1. Distributive Law. The "Distributive Law" is the BEST one of all, but needs careful attention. This is what it lets us do: 3 lots of (2+4) is the same as 3 lots of 2 plus 3 lots of 4

  2. No Repetition: for example the first three people in a running race. You can't be first and second. 1. Permutations with Repetition. These are the easiest to calculate. When a thing has n different types ... we have n choices each time! For example: choosing 3 of those things, the permutations are: n × n × n (n multiplied 3 times)

  3. Sep 10, 2023 · For example: 1 + 2 x 3 ≠ 2 + 1 x 3 7 ≠ 5. Non-Applicability to Subtraction and Division. The commutative property does not apply to subtraction and division. In other words, subtraction and division are non-commutative. For Subtraction: a−b ≠ b−a Example: 5−2 ≠ 2−5. For Division: b/a ≠ a/b Example: 4/2 ≠ 2/4

  4. The number of permutations of n things taken k at a time is. (P(n, k) = n(n − 1)(n − 2)⋯(n − k + 1) = n! (n − k)!. A permutation of some objects is a particular linear ordering of the objects; P(n, k) in effect counts two things simultaneously: the number of ways to choose and order k out of n objects. A useful special case is k = n ...

  5. In mathematics, a binary operation is commutative if changing the order of the operands does not change the result. It is a fundamental property of many binary operations, and many mathematical proofs depend on it. Perhaps most familiar as a property of arithmetic, e.g. "3 + 4 = 4 + 3" or "2 × 5 = 5 × 2", the property can also be used in more ...

  7. May 26, 2022 · Example 1. Let’s look at a simple example to understand the formula for the number of permutations of a set of objects. Assume that 10 cars are in a race. In how many ways can three cars finish in first, second and third place? The order in which the cars finish is important. Use the multiplication principle. There are 10 possible cars to ...
