Joey is trying to decide which of their games they should bring to game night. If Joey owns 40 games but only
decides to bring 5, how many combinations of games are possible?

Respuesta :

The combination of possible games Joey can bring to the game night is 658008.

What is a combination?

A combination is a mathematical approach for determining the number of potential arrangements in a set of objects when the sequence and order of the selection are irrelevant.

Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

[tex]\mathbf{C(n,r) = (^n_r) = \dfrac{n!}{(r!(n-r)!)}}[/tex]

From the given information:

  • Total number of object (n) = 40
  • Number of choosing object (r) = 5

[tex]\mathbf{C(n,r) = \dfrac{40!}{(5!(40-5)!)}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{C(n,r) = \dfrac{40!}{(5!(35)!)}}[/tex]

C(n, r) = 658008
