What is 15 choose 12?
Answer
15 choose 12 is
455
Order doesn't matter, no repeats: 455 ways to choose 12 of 15 items.
Choosing 12 of 15 is the same as leaving 3 out: C(15, 12) = C(15, 3).
C(15, 12) = 15! / (12! · 3!)
= C(15, 3)
= (15 × 14 × 13) / (3 × 2 × 1)
= 2,730 / 6
= 455
If order matters (permutations): P(15, 12) = 15 × 14 × 13 × … × 4 = 217,945,728,000 — each combination in 12! = 479,001,600 orders.
