FAQs on Introduction: Permutations and Combinations Video Lecture - General Aptitude for GATE - Mechanical Engineering

1. How do permutations differ from combinations?
Ans. Permutations refer to the arrangement of objects in a specific order, while combinations refer to the selection of objects without considering the order.
2. What is the formula for calculating permutations?
Ans. The formula for permutations is nPr = n! / (n-r)!, where n is the total number of objects and r is the number of objects being arranged.
3. How do you calculate combinations?
Ans. The formula for combinations is nCr = n! / (r! * (n-r)!), where n is the total number of objects and r is the number of objects being selected.
4. In how many ways can you arrange the letters in the word "APPLE"?
Ans. There are 5 letters in the word "APPLE," so the number of permutations is 5! = 120 ways.
