Evaluate the combination:
3C0
Combination Definition:
A unique order or arrangement
Combination Formula:
| nCr = | n! |
| r!(n - r)! |
where n is the number of items
r is the unique arrangements.
Plug in n = 3 and r = 0
| 3C0 2 | 3! |
| 0!(3 - 0)! |
Factorial Formula:
n! = n * (n - 1) * (n - 2) * .... * 2 * 1
Calculate the numerator n!:
n! = 3!
3! = 3 x 2 x 1
3! = 6
Calculate (n - r)!:
(n - r)! = (3 - 0)!
(3 - 0)! = 3!
3! = 3 x 2 x 1
3! = 6
Calculate r!:
r! = 0!
0! =
0! = 1
Calculate 3C0
| 3C0 = | 6 |
| 1 x 6 |
| 3C0 = | 6 |
| 6 |
3C0 = 1

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.
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)!
nCr=n!/r!(n-r)!
What 4 concepts are covered in the Permutations and Combinations Calculator?
- combination
- a mathematical technique that determines the number of possible arrangements in a collection of items where the order of the selection does not matter
nPr = n!/r!(n - r)! - factorial
- The product of an integer and all the integers below it
- permutation
- a way in which a set or number of things can be ordered or arranged.
nPr = n!/(n - r)! - permutations and combinations
