Permutations & Combinations

Fundamental Counting Principle

If an activity can be done in ‘m’ ways and other activity can be done in ‘n’ ways, the total number of ways of doing the activity one after the other is m X n

Illustration--- Ramu can go from his home to school by 3 means --- by walk, by cycle, by bus to near school bus stand, from there he reach the school by 2 ways (kacha road, pakka road).

walk kacha Home cycle School Bus stand School bus pakka

3 ways from home to school stand

2 ways from stand to school

m x n = 3 x 2 = 6 ways

Examples using the counting principle: Let's say that you want to flip a coin and roll a die. There are 2 ways that you can flip a coin and 6 ways that you can roll a die. There are then 2x6=12 ways that you can flip a coin and roll a die.

If you want to draw 2 cards from a standard deck of 52 cards without replacing them, then there are 52 ways to draw the first and 51 ways to draw the second, so there are a total of 52*51 = 2652 ways to draw the two cards.

Permutations

A permutation is one of the different arrangements of a group of items where order matters. Consider the following:

Given 3 people, Brinda, Mary and Shariff, how many different ways can these three people be arranged where order matters?

Let BMS stand for the order of Brinda on the left, Mary in the middle and Shariff on the right.

Since order matters, a different arrangement is BSM. Where Brinda is on the left, Shariff is in the middle and Mary is on the right.

If we find all possible arrangements of Brinda, Mary and Shariff where order matters, we have the following:

BMS, BSM, MSB, MBS, SMB, SBM

The number of ways to arrange three people three at a time is: 3! = (3)(2)(1) = 6 ways

There are n! ways to arrange n objects in groups of n at a time.

The number of permutations of n objects taken r at a time is:

KOER Probability, Permutations and Combinations html 5d806af0.gif, this is when there are no repetitions.

Combinations

A combination is of a grouping of items where order does not matter. Example creating subgroups of 3 from Sub groups of 3 from a team of fifteen.

Consider the following:

Given 3 people, Brinda, Mary and Shariff, how many different ways can these three people be selected to form a group?

Since order does not matter, any arrangement with Brinda, Mary and Shariff is considered the same .

Therefore the only one way of grouping 3 people.

Now suppose we want to take four people, Brinda, Mary, Shariff and Anita, and arrange them in groups of three at a time where order does not matter. The following demonstrates all the possible arrangements.

BMS, MSA, BMA, BSA

There are 4 ways to group 4 people in groups of 3 at a time.

The number of combinations of a group of n objects taken r at a time is:

when no repetitions are allowed.

Teaching Outlines

Concept # 1 Fundamental Principle of Counting

Learning objectives

  1. Students should be able to determine the number of outcomes in a problem
  2. Students should be able to apply the Fundamental principle of counting to find out the total number of outcomes in problem
  3. Students should be able to draw the tree diagram for the outcomes

Notes for teachers

when teaching permutation remember following points.

  1. permutation is a way of representing number of outcomes in a event.

Activities

Activity No # 1 Flipping a coin and a dice Click here

Concept # 2 Factorial Notation

Learning objectives

  1. Students should be able to use the factorial notation
  2. Students should be able to tell that n! is the product of first 'n' natural numbers
  3. Students should be able to know that if 'n' is a negative number or a decimal, n! is not defined
  4. Students should be able to know the value of 0!

Notes for teachers

These are short notes that the teacher wants to share about the concept, any locally relevant information, specific instructions on what kind of methodology used and common misconceptions/mistakes.
