Reflection:

“How will I apply my learnings in real-life problems and making decisions?”

I understand that...
While Answering this worksheet, I felt that this is hard because I forgot what
are the key words when answering whether we use the formula for permutations or
Combinations. I felt problematic because I didn’t know which formula will I use so I used
different methods to find the answer and I looked back to the past video lessons and
worksheet to ensure my solution is correct.

I realized that …
We should not forget our past lessons because just like our math teacher said
“ If you know the basics, Math will be easier” because we use the basics all the time in all the
lessons we tackle from the past and probably in the future.
