What is 19 choose 6?

Answer

19 choose 6 is
27,132

Order doesn't matter, no repeats: 27,132 ways to choose 6 of 19 items.

C(19, 6) = 19! / (6! · 13!)

= (19 × 18 × 17 × 16 × 15 × 14) / (6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1)
= 19,535,040 / 720

= 27,132

If order matters (permutations): P(19, 6) = 19 × 18 × 17 × 16 × 15 × 14 = 19,535,040 — each combination in 6! = 720 orders.

Row sum: 219 = 524,288 — all subsets of 19 items.

How many ways are there if order matters?

P(19, 6) = 19,535,040. Each of the 27,132 combinations can be put in order in 6! = 720 ways, so permutations = combinations × k!: P(n, k) = n! / (n − k)!.
