Evaluate the combination:
24C6
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 = 24 and r = 6
| 24C6 2 | 24! |
| 6!(24 - 6)! |
Factorial Formula:
n! = n * (n - 1) * (n - 2) * .... * 2 * 1
Calculate the numerator n!:
n! = 24!
24! = 24 x 23 x 22 x 21 x 20 x 19 x 18 x 17 x 16 x 15 x 14 x 13 x 12 x 11 x 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1
24! = 620,448,401,733,239,409,999,872
Calculate (n - r)!:
(n - r)! = (24 - 6)!
(24 - 6)! = 18!
18! = 18 x 17 x 16 x 15 x 14 x 13 x 12 x 11 x 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1
18! = 6,402,373,705,728,000
Calculate r!:
r! = 6!
6! = 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1
6! = 720
Calculate 24C6
| 24C6 = | 620,448,401,733,239,409,999,872 |
| 720 x 6,402,373,705,728,000 |
| 24C6 = | 620,448,401,733,239,409,999,872 |
| 4,609,709,068,124,160,000 |
24C6 = 134,596

How does the Permutations and Combinations Calculator work?
Free Permutations and Combinations Calculator - Calculates the following:
Number of permutation(s) of n items arranged in r ways = nPr
Number of combination(s) of n items arranged in r unique ways = nCr including subsets of sets
This calculator has 2 inputs.
What 2 formulas are used for the Permutations and Combinations Calculator?
nPr=n!/r!nCr=n!/r!(n-r)!

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
