Question

The number of permutations of n elements can be determined by using the Fundamental Counting Principle. True or False?

Answer 1

Answer:True

Explanation:

Fundamental counting principle can be used to determine the number of permutations of n objects.

E.g: If you have to arrange 3 letters A, B, C in 3 slots..Then there are 3 choices for first slot, two choices for 2nd slot and one choice for last slot , so there are 3*2*1=6 ways to arrange the letters, which is equal to the number of permutations to n distinct objects.
