7 Combinations of 1
Emily Carr general
Evaluate the combination:
7C1
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 = 7 and r = 1
| 7C1 2 | 7! |
| 1!(7 - 1)! |
Factorial Formula:
n! = n * (n - 1) * (n - 2) * .... * 2 * 1
Calculate the numerator n!:
n! = 7!
7! = 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1
7! = 5,040
Calculate (n - r)!:
(n - r)! = (7 - 1)!
(7 - 1)! = 6!
6! = 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1
6! = 720
Calculate r!:
r! = 1!
1! = 1
1! = 1
Calculate 7C1
| 7C1 = | 5,040 |
| 1 x 720 |
| 7C1 = | 5,040 |
| 720 |
7C1 = 7
Excel or Google Sheets formula:
=COMBIN(7,1)
What is the Answer?
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
