Procedures Introduction: Today we are going to learn about permutations and combinations. You will be able to find permutation and
Motivation combinations of different events by the end of the lesson. I expect you to pay attention to the lesson as I teach you about
Grouping combinations and permutations, answer questions if I ask them as directed, and listen to all of my instructions.
Instructional Strategies (steps in the lesson) Body: We are going to first look at what permutations are:
to include questioning techniques and

themselves and ask the class:
a) Do we have the same group of students?
b) Do we have the same line?
Permutations:
The definition-
A permutation is an ordered arrangement of objects. The number of different permutations
of n distinct objects is n!
The expression n! is read as n factorial and is defined as follows
Remind them of The Fundamental Counting Principle problems we looked at last week (How many ways can
6 trophies be arranged on a shelf?...)

Lesson Plan Component Description
n!
n P r=
( n−r ) ! where r≤n
Work and example of Permutations:
Example 2:
Find the number of ways of forming four-digit codes in which no digit is repeated.
10 ! 10 !
n P r =10 P4 = = =5040
o ( 10−4 ) ! 6 !
Students will work examples on page 169 on their own
Example 2 Try it yourself 2 a and b
I will then go over these problems
I will work Example 3
Forty-three race cars started the 2010 Daytona 500. How many ways can the cars finish first, second
and third
You need to select three race cars from a group of 43, so n=43 and r=3. Because the order is
important, the number of ways the cars can finish first, second and third is
43! 43 !
n P r =43 P3 = = =43⋅42⋅41=74 , 046
( 43−3 ) ! 40 !
Depending on if the students are picking up the concept I might have them work Try it yourself
example 3 a and b
Combination:
The definition-
A combination is a selection of r objects from a group of n objects without regard to order and is
C
denoted by n r . The number of combinations of r objects selected from a group of n objects is
n!
n Cr =
( n−r ) !r!
Work an example of the Combination

Lesson Plan Component Description
A state’s department of transportation plans to develop a new section of interstate highway and receives 16
bids for the project. The state plans to hire four of the bidding companies. How many different combinations
of four companies can be selected from the 16 bidding companies?
16! 16!
n C r = 16 C4 = = =1820
( 16−4 ) ! 4 ! 12! 4 !
Students will work Try it yourself 5 from their book on page 171
I will then go over these problems
I will give them a worksheet to work in groups to help each other understand the concepts.
I will let them choose their own groups and let them know that they need to act appropriate and work
together
I will then go over the worksheet to make sure they understand the concepts
Conclusion:
Today we have learned how to solve permutations and combinations. *If you do not finish your worksheet finish that for
homework. For more practice try problems 7-14, 15, 17, 19, 23, 27 and 31on page 175 for homework.

Were objectives successfully achieved? What went
well? What would you like to improve? What
adjustments will be made in succeeding lessons?
