12.3 Permutations and
Combinations
Mrs. Taormina
Probability and Statistics
Permutations
and
Combinations
What’s the Difference?
"My fruit salad is a combination of apples,
grapes and bananas" We don't care what
order the fruits are in, they could also be
"bananas, grapes and apples" or "grapes,
apples and bananas", its the same fruit salad.
(order does not matter) Combination
What’s the Difference?
"The combination to the safe was 472". Now
we do care about the order. "724" would not
work, nor would "247". It has to be exactly 47-2.
(Order matters) Permutation
This should be called a
“permutation” lock!
(You can laugh…ha! ha!)
