Math Problem Statement

How many permutations is between 1to 9

Solution

To find how many permutations there are between the numbers 1 to 9, we need to compute the total number of ways to arrange these digits. This is a permutation of 9 distinct digits, and the formula for permutations of nn distinct objects is:

n!=n×(n1)×(n2)××1n! = n \times (n-1) \times (n-2) \times \ldots \times 1

For n=9n = 9:

9!=9×8×7×6×5×4×3×2×19! = 9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1

Let's calculate 9!9!.

9!=362,8809! = 362,880

So, there are 362,880 permutations of the digits from 1 to 9.

Would you like a detailed explanation of the concept of permutations or more examples?

Here are five related questions to explore the topic further:

  1. How many permutations are there if you only use 5 digits out of 9?
  2. What are combinations, and how do they differ from permutations?
  3. How many ways can you arrange the digits 1 to 9 if some digits are repeated?
  4. How many different 4-digit numbers can you form from the digits 1 to 9 without repetition?
  5. How do permutations apply to real-world problems like scheduling or seating arrangements?

Tip: The difference between permutations and combinations is that permutations take the order of objects into account, while combinations do not.
