P(6,2) = 6!/(6-2)!
P(6,2) = 6!/4! 6! = 1*2*3*4*5*6 4! = 1*2*3*4
P(6,2) = (1*2*3*4*5*6)/(1*2*3*4)
P(6,2) = (5*6)/1
P(6,2) = 30
I hope this makes sense. Let me know if you don't understand any of this. ☺♥

The sum of 4 consecutive integers is 40 what is the third number in this sequence?

Dmitry [639]

Let's represent the numbers by : x, x+1, x+2, x+3
x+x+1+x+2+x+3=40 The third number in the sequence is x+2
4x+6=40 8.5+2=10.5
4x+6-6=40-6 Therefore the third number in the sequence is
4x=34 10.5
4x/4=34/4
x=8.5
