n choose k calculator n=10, k=7 result
Find out how many different ways you can choose k items from n items set without repetition and without order. This number is also called combination number or n choose k or binomial coefficient or simply combinations. See also general combinatorial calculator.Calculation:
Ck(n)=(kn)=k!(n−k)!n! n=10 k=7 C7(10)=(710)=7!(10−7)!10!=3⋅2⋅110⋅9⋅8=120
The number of combinations: 120
A bit of theory - the foundation of combinatorics
Combinations
A combination of a k-th class of n elements is an unordered k-element group formed from a set of n elements. The elements are not repeated, and it does not matter the order of the group's elements. In mathematics, disordered groups are called sets and subsets. Their number is a combination number and is calculated as follows:Ck(n)=(kn)=k!(n−k)!n!
A typical example of combinations is that we have 15 students and we have to choose three. How many will there be?
