Suppose you want to draw three cards from a standard deck of cards (4 suits; spade (black), clubs (black), heart (red), and diamond (red). Each suite have 13 cards; Ace, 2, 3, · · · , 10, Jack (face), Queen (face), King (face)). (a) In how many different ways can you draw cards if you have at least 2 suits? (b) In how many di
Permutations and Combinations
If there are 5 dishes, they can be relished in any order at a time. In permutation, it should be in a particular order. In combination, the order does not matter. Take 3 letters a, b, and c. The possible ways of pairing any two letters are ab, bc, ac, ba, cb and ca. It is in a particular order. So, this can be called the permutation of a, b, and c. But if the order does not matter then ab is the same as ba. Similarly, bc is the same as cb and ac is the same as ca. Here the list has ab, bc, and ac alone. This can be called the combination of a, b, and c.
Counting Theory
The fundamental counting principle is a rule that is used to count the total number of possible outcomes in a given situation.
Suppose you want to draw three cards from a standard deck of cards (4 suits; spade (black), clubs (black),
heart (red), and diamond (red). Each suite have 13 cards; Ace, 2, 3, · · · , 10, Jack (face), Queen (face),
King (face)).
(a) In how many different ways can you draw cards if you have at least 2 suits?
(b) In how many different ways can you draw cards such that you have at least 1 face cards?
(c) In how many different ways can you draw the cards such that they all have a different value?
