What to Focus On
- Multiplication principle for 'AND' situations
- Addition principle for 'OR' situations
- Identify whether operations are simultaneous or alternative
- 0! = 1 by definition, crucial for combination formulas
- n!/r! = n × (n-1) × ... × (r+1) for n > r
- Always simplify before computing final values
- Order matters in permutations - ABC ≠ BAC
- Without repetition: ⁿPᵣ = n!/(n-r)!
- With repetition allowed: nʳ
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Permutation and combination formulas can be used interchangeably since both involve arranging objects
In circular arrangements, we always use (n-1)! regardless of the problem context
ⁿCᵣ = ⁿCₙ₋ᵣ means these are the same selections
