Evaluate the combination:
12C12
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 = 12 and r = 12
| 12C12 2 | 12! |
| 12!(12 - 12)! |
Factorial Formula:
n! = n * (n - 1) * (n - 2) * .... * 2 * 1
Calculate the numerator n!:
n! = 12!
12! = 12 x 11 x 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1
12! = 479,001,600
Calculate (n - r)!:
(n - r)! = (12 - 12)!
(12 - 12)! = 0!
0! =
0! = 1
Calculate r!:
r! = 12!
12! = 12 x 11 x 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1
12! = 479,001,600
Calculate 12C12
| 12C12 = | 479,001,600 |
| 479,001,600 x 1 |
| 12C12 = | 479,001,600 |
| 479,001,600 |
12C12 = 1

What 2 formulas are used for the Permutations and Combinations Calculator?
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
