    What is 8 choose 0?

    Answer

    8 choose 0 is
    1

    Order doesn't matter, no repeats: 1 way to choose 0 of 8 items.

    There is exactly one way: take none.

    C(8, 0) = 8! / (0! · 8!)

    = 1

    0! = 1 (an empty product), so 8! cancels out completely.

    Row sum: 28 = 256 — all subsets of 8 items.

    FAQ

    What is 8 choose 0?

    8 choose 0 is 1

    Why is 8 choose 0 the same as 8 choose 8?

    Every way to choose 0 of 8 items leaves exactly 8 behind, so choosing 0 and choosing which 8 to leave out are the same count: 8 choose 0 = 8 choose 8 = 1. In the formula n! / (k! (n − k)!) the two factorials below just swap places.

    How many ways are there if order matters?

    The same 1: with 0 chosen items there is only one order, so P(8, 0) = 8 choose 0 = 1. Order starts to matter from 2 items on: n × (n − 1) arrangements.
