Question

There are 5 persons and at a time only 3 can be arranged. What is the total number of arrangements?

Answer 1

Answer:

If there are 5 persons and at a time only 3 can be arranged, the total number of arrangements is 60

Option C is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5 persons and at a time only 3 can be arranged.

The total number of arrangements = nPr = n!/(n-r)!

Here n = 5 and r = 3

nPr = n!/(n-r)!

nPr = 5!(5-3)!

nPr = 5!/2!

nPr = 5*4*3*2!/2!

nPr = 5*4*3

nPr = 60

So, if there are 5 persons and at a time only 3 can be arranged, the total number of arrangements is 60

Option C is correct.
