What are permutation and combination?

A permutation is an act of putting things or elements in the right sequence. Combinations are a method of picking things or pieces from a collection of objects or sets when the sequence of the objects is irrelevant.

If you choose 1 scoop of ice cream from 12 flavors and any 1 topping from a choice of 8.

Then the number of the different ways to make ice-cream sundaes will be

Let x be the number of the ways.

$\rm x = \ ^{12}C_1 \times ^8C_1\\\\x = 12 \times 8\\\\x = 96$

Then the number of the different ways to make ice cream will be 96.
