calculator as it will be used in
our online discussion later.
PERMUTATION
An arrangement of objects in a definite
order or the ordered arrangement of
distinguishable objects without allowing
repetitions among the objects.
Preliminary Task

What is meant by 𝑛! (𝑛 factorial)
𝑛! = 𝑛(𝑛 − 1)(𝑛 − 2)(𝑛 − 3) …
Example:

4! = 24
Types of Permutation
1. Permutation of 𝑛 objects
2. Distinguishable Permutation
3. Permutation of 𝑛 objects taken 𝑟 at a time
4. Circular Permutation
