Artemon [7]

As there are 10 cups of flour, you would calculate the amount of sugar by 3/8*10, getting 15/4 cups (or 3 and 3/4 cups). This answer falls between the whole numbers 3 and 4.

Part A

Since order matters, we use the nPr permutation formula

We use n = 12 and r = 8

$_{n}P_{r} = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}\\\\_{12}P_{8} = \frac{12!}{(12-8)!}\\\\_{12}P_{8} = \frac{12!}{4!}\\\\_{12}P_{8} = \frac{12*11*10*9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1}{4*3*2*1}\\\\_{12}P_{8} = \frac{479,001,600}{24}\\\\_{12}P_{8} = 19,958,400\\\\$

There are a little under 20 million different permutations.

============================================================

Part B

In this case, order doesn't matter. We could use the nCr combination formula like so.

$_{n}C_{r} = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{12!}{8!(12-8)!}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{12!}{4!}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{12*11*10*9*8!}{8!*4!}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{12*11*10*9}{4!} \ \text{ ... pair of 8! terms cancel}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{12*11*10*9}{4*3*2*1}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{11880}{24}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = 495\\\\$

We have a much smaller number compared to last time because order isn't important. Consider a group of 3 people {A,B,C} and this group is identical to {C,B,A}. This idea applies to groups of any number.

-----------------

Another way we can compute the answer is to use the result from part A.

Recall that:

nCr = (nPr)/(r!)

If we know the permutation value, we simply divide by r! to get the combination value. In this case, we divide by r! = 8! = 8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 40,320

So,

$_{n}C_{r} = \frac{_{n}P_{r}}{r!}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{_{12}P_{8}}{8!}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = \frac{19,958,400}{40,320}\\\\_{12}C_{8} = 495\\\\$

Not only is this shortcut fairly handy, but it's also interesting to see how the concepts of combinations and permutations connect to one another.
