The question is asking 'how many different ways can we pair two diplomats to shake hand'?

The combination formula is given by: \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}

We have n = 25 and r = 2

Substituting into the formula we have

\frac{25!}{(25-2)!2!} =300 handshakes

There is 5/6 of an apple pie left from dinner. Tomorrow, Victor plans to eat 1/6 of the pie that was left. How much of the whole
Lady_Fox [76]
5/6 = 83% 
1/6= 16%

83% of the apple pie was left from dinner. 
Victor is gonna eat 16% of the pie tomorrow 
You have to subtract 16% from 83%
In other words 5/6-1/6


The denominators are same so you don't have to do anything to them  
5/6 - 1/6 

5-1=4

4/6 of the pie would be left 
In simplest form it would be 

4/6     <span> ÷2</span>
=2/3

2/3 is in simplest form
