What is 19 choose 9?

Answer

19 choose 9 is
92,378

Order doesn't matter, no repeats: 92,378 ways to choose 9 of 19 items.

C(19, 9) = 19! / (9! · 10!)

= (19 × 18 × 17 × … × 11) / (9 × 8 × 7 × … × 1)

9 factors on top and bottom

= 33,522,128,640 / 362,880

= 92,378

If order matters (permutations): P(19, 9) = 19 × 18 × 17 × … × 11 = 33,522,128,640 — each combination in 9! = 362,880 orders.

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

P(19, 9) = 33,522,128,640. Each of the 92,378 combinations can be put in order in 9! = 362,880 ways, so permutations = combinations × k!: P(n, k) = n! / (n − k)!.
