a) 20·9! = 5·4·9·8·7·6·5·4·3·2·1
a) 6P4 = 6! / (6-4)! = 6! / 2! = (6·5·4·3·2·1) / (2·1) = 6·5·4·3 = 360
a) 21! / (17!4!) = (21·20·19·18) / (4·3·2·1) = 7·5·19·9

Thank you so much, really appreciate your help! But the only thing I’m confused about at the moment is for a) like how would you get it in factorial form? Like for example 30x4!, so 10x3x4x3x2x1, The answer would is supposed to be 6!, how would you turn it into that is what I’m confused about.05/04/21

Sorry I realised for a) I meant to write 20x19!, would it be 5x4x19x18x17....x1? I’m still confused. For c). numerator, why did u do that up till 18? Why not 17!? And why for only 4! ?05/03/21
