    What is 9 choose 0?

    Answer

    9 choose 0 is
    1

    Order doesn't matter, no repeats: 1 way to choose 0 of 9 items.

    There is exactly one way: take none.

    C(9, 0) = 9! / (0! · 9!)

    = 1

    0! = 1 (an empty product), so 9! cancels out completely.

    Row sum: 29 = 512 — all subsets of 9 items.

    FAQ

    What is 9 choose 0?

    9 choose 0 is 1

    Why is 9 choose 0 the same as 9 choose 9?

    Every way to choose 0 of 9 items leaves exactly 9 behind, so choosing 0 and choosing which 9 to leave out are the same count: 9 choose 0 = 9 choose 9 = 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(9, 0) = 9 choose 0 = 1. Order starts to matter from 2 items on: n × (n − 1) arrangements.
