    FAQ

    What is 6 choose 1?

    6 choose 1 is 6

    Why is 6 choose 1 the same as 6 choose 5?

    Every way to choose 1 of 6 items leaves exactly 5 behind, so choosing 1 and choosing which 5 to leave out are the same count: 6 choose 1 = 6 choose 5 = 6. In the formula n! / (k! (n − k)!) the two factorials below just swap places.

    How many ways are there if order matters?

    The same 6: with 1 chosen item there is only one order, so P(6, 1) = 6 choose 1 = 6. Order starts to matter from 2 items on: n × (n − 1) arrangements.
