163 What This Module is About
164

165 In the previous module, you have learned about how to illustrate and solve
166problems involving permutation and combination of objects. As you go over this
167module, you will be able to learn how to differentiate permutation from combination of

4
168n objects taken r at a time. You will be presented several problems were you can
169identify the difference of permutation from combination.
170
171For the facilitator:
172 Welcome to the Mathematics 10 Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) Module on
173Differentiating Permutation from Combination n Objects Taken r at Time!
174 This module is collaboratively designed, developed and reviewed by
175educators from public institutions to assist you, the teacher or facilitator in helping
176your learners meet the standards set by the K to 12 Curriculum while overcoming
177their personal, social, and economic constraints in schooling.
178 This learning resource hopes to engage your learners into guided and
179independent learning activities at their own pace and time. Furthermore, this also
180aims to help learners acquire the needed 21st century skills while taking into
181consideration their needs and circumstances.
182 In addition to the material in the main text, you will also see this box in the
183body of the module:
184
185
186 Notes to the Teacher
This contains helpful tips or strategies
187
that will help you in guiding the learners.
188
189 As a facilitator you are expected to orient the learners on how to use this
190module. You also need to keep track of the learners' progress while allowing them to
191manage their own learning. Furthermore, you are expected to encourage and assist
192the learners as they do the tasks included in the module.

197 The hand is one of the most symbolized part of the human body. It is often
198used to depict skill, action and purpose. Through our hands we may learn, create
199and accomplish. Hence, the hand in this learning resource signifies that you as a
200learner is capable and empowered to achieve successfully the relevant
201competencies and skills at your own pace and time. Your academic success lies in
202your own hands!
203 This module is designed to provide you with fun and meaningful opportunities
204for guided and independent learning at your own pace and time. You will be enabled
205to process the contents of the learning resource while being an active learner.

488 Permutation Versus Combination
489
490 You have learned about permutation and combination in the previous
491 lesson but have you ever imagined that these two have different concepts?
492 The fundamental difference between permutation and combination is the
493 order objects, in permutation the order of objects is very important. As against
494 this, in the case of combination, the order does not matter at all. See in
495 comparison Chart.

504 Understanding Permutation and Combination
505
506 Suppose we have 4 objects A, B, C and D and we are required to
507 choose 3 from them and then arrange them on a shelf. This can be done in
508 the following ways:

510
511 Thus, there are 4 ways of choosing 3 objects from 4 and there are 6
512 ways of arranging the chosen objects. The process of selecting things is
513 called combination and that of arranging things is called permutation.
514
515 Examples of relating to combination:
516 1. Handshaking with other
517 2. Numbering in no particular order
518 3. Picking multiple objects in one draw
519 4. Forming of a team from a number of players.
520 5. Forming of a particular committee from a number of players
521
522 Examples of relating to permutation:
523 1. Ranking people

865
866 This module was about differentiate Permutation from Combination. You’ve
867undergo some activity for your deeper understanding of our lessons. Through some
868activity you were be able to identify situations that describe permutation from
869combination and solve it. In this way, the theories learned can be applied thoroughly
870with the use of the tests, word problems and more importantly, real life situations as
871well.
