Lesson 9-4 Pages Permutations Lesson Check 9-3
What you will learn! How to find the number of permutations of a set of objects.
PermutationFactorial
What you really need to know! The expression n factorial (n!) is the product of all counting numbers beginning with n and counting backward to 1. 6! = 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 720
What you really need to know! A permutation is an arrangement, or listing, of objects in which order is important. You can use the Fundamental Counting Principle to find the number of possible arrangements.

Example of a Permutation: You must pick 2 letters from the letters A, B, C to form a two letter code for computer access. Each letter can only be used once. How many codes can be made. 32 x = 6 AB AC BA BC CA CB
Example 1: Find the value of the expression. 4 x 3 x 2 x !
Example 2: Find the value of the expression. 3 x 2 x 1 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x ! 5!
Example 3: A team of bowlers has five members who bowl one at a time. In how many orders can they bowl?
Example 3: This is a permutation. There are 5 choices for the first bowler, 4 for the second, 3 for the third, 2 for the fourth, and 1 for the fifth. 120 Written as 5!
Example 4: A school fair holds a raffle with 1 st, 2 nd, and 3 rd place prizes. Seven people enter the raffle. How many ways can the three prizes be awarded?
Example 3: This is part of a permutation. There are 7 choices for 1 st place, 6 for 2 nd place, and 5 for 3 rd place. 210 Written as 7 x 6 x 5.
