00:0-1 | Good day . Welcome to the tech mouth channel . | |
00:01 | What we're going to be having a look at this | |
00:03 | video is permutations . Permutations . The number of different | |
00:07 | ways that things can be arranged . This is not | |
00:09 | to be confused with combinations . Are we trying to | |
00:11 | actually address right now ? First off , the difference | |
00:14 | between combinations and permutations And I'll explain explain this with | |
00:18 | an example . Imagine we had 20 people . Okay | |
00:23 | 20 people and I have three seats . I'm going | |
00:26 | to place them in Now . I select out of | |
00:29 | 20 people . I select three people and one is | |
00:32 | Raj . Another one is die and another one is | |
00:38 | ty So you're always talking about permutations where I placed | |
00:44 | raj die and tie would actually matter because it would | |
00:48 | be considered different . That raj would sit here , | |
00:50 | die would sit here . Ty would sit here as | |
00:52 | opposed to die . Sitting here raj sitting here , | |
00:55 | tie sitting here or tie . Sitting here , Die | |
00:59 | sitting there and ranching in there . That would be | |
01:00 | considered different arrangements . Whereas we're talking combinations arrangement doesn't | |
01:05 | matter . And about 20 people . I've just selected | |
01:07 | three people and it happens to be these three . | |
01:09 | And so combinations wouldn't really matter where these three guys | |
01:13 | sat as long as they were sitting somewhere . So | |
01:15 | I hope you get that idea . But in this | |
01:17 | particular video where it is going to be considering permutations | |
01:21 | so order does matter . So there's four major different | |
01:25 | types of permutations that we're going to be having a | |
01:28 | look at in this video . We're going to start | |
01:30 | simply and we're going to work our way up as | |
01:32 | we go . All right . So I'll recommend if | |
01:34 | you're doing permutations as a topic , you probably will | |
01:37 | want to have a look at this entire video . | |
01:39 | So first off I'm going to start with just examples | |
01:42 | with these . So how many different ways this , | |
01:45 | This is the most simple type of permutation . How | |
01:47 | many different ways can we arrange for people in a | |
01:51 | row ? So to do this , you might want | |
01:54 | to consider . We have four different positions . Okay | |
01:58 | , so four people , four different positions . And | |
02:01 | how many different ways could we arrange them ? Well | |
02:04 | , if we consider this first position , we have | |
02:07 | four different people , we could choose to be in | |
02:08 | here . But once we've placed person in here , | |
02:11 | we left . Now with only three people for the | |
02:13 | second position . Okay , so now we've placed these | |
02:16 | two people in were narrowly left with two people and | |
02:19 | then we're only left with one person . So when | |
02:21 | we're talking about how many permutations we have , what | |
02:25 | we do is we then multiply these through . So | |
02:27 | four times three times two times one . And if | |
02:30 | you've had a look at my earlier video , the | |
02:32 | video I made just before this on factorial , you | |
02:34 | realize this is four factorial four times three times two | |
02:37 | times one is equal to 24 different arrangements that we | |
02:42 | could have . So that's the first top of permutation | |
02:45 | we can have . I'll tell you what , I'll | |
02:47 | give you an example that you can do . So | |
02:49 | what about imagine if I was talking now about what | |
02:53 | about six people in a row ? How many different | |
02:55 | ways can we arrange six different people in a row | |
02:58 | ? So this is equal to six factorial , which | |
03:02 | is an extra two positions . So this is six | |
03:06 | people 54321 And we multiply these . And that's the | |
03:13 | simplest way of doing that . If you were to | |
03:15 | multiply this out , you're going to get 720 different | |
03:19 | ways . Okay , so I'm going to go through | |
03:21 | the second type of permutation now that we get the | |
03:24 | second most common type where what we have to say | |
03:27 | something like so imagine we had seven books but we | |
03:30 | only had three spaces to put them in . Okay | |
03:34 | . On the bookshelf it's only space for three books | |
03:36 | . We have seven books to choose from how many | |
03:38 | different arrangements would be possible . So I'm going to | |
03:41 | draw those three spaces 12 three . Now , if | |
03:46 | you imagine this from these seven books which you have | |
03:49 | to choose a book but there's seven possibilities we could | |
03:52 | choose from . So after we choose that first book | |
03:55 | we now have one less and we've only got six | |
03:58 | possibilities to choose from . Then we only have five | |
04:00 | possibilities to choose from . After we've already filled these | |
04:02 | two positions . And this is the number of arrangements | |
04:06 | we could have . We would then get these and | |
04:07 | multiply them . We're not going to multiply the entire | |
04:10 | factorial because we only have three spaces , so seven | |
04:14 | times six times five Is 210 different arrangements . Okay | |
04:22 | . Yeah , I'm just gonna slow down on this | |
04:24 | one and show you something with this . So just | |
04:26 | to give you a bit of a hand in case | |
04:27 | you get these types of questions . So what you | |
04:30 | might notice with this is that this seven times six | |
04:34 | times five is kind of like seven factorial but we're | |
04:37 | missing the last little part . We're missing this four | |
04:40 | times three times two times one part . Okay . | |
04:44 | This part . Mhm . We're missing that . And | |
04:48 | what your might also realizes with this , where are | |
04:52 | they taking the first three spaces ? Because we only | |
04:55 | have three spaces . So this has led to a | |
04:57 | rule that if we have n number of items and | |
05:00 | we have this many spaces , the number of different | |
05:03 | ways they can be arranged is where we have N | |
05:06 | factorial over n minus R . Factorial . Okay . | |
05:11 | I'm pretty much what we're doing is we're saying where | |
05:13 | are we going to take the first this many spices | |
05:18 | ? Okay . So what about I'll give you an | |
05:19 | example here . What about we have eight cars and | |
05:23 | we have three spaces to park these cars . All | |
05:28 | right . How many different ways could this be achieved | |
05:32 | or arranged ? So first off , what you're going | |
05:35 | to do is you're gonna probably think , okay , | |
05:36 | we're gonna get eight factorial different ways but we're only | |
05:40 | going to take the first three . Okay . Because | |
05:48 | we only got three spaces . So this is this | |
05:51 | is the way I think about it . It's just | |
05:53 | going to be eight times seven times six . Okay | |
05:57 | . Which is 336 different arrangements . So I actually | |
06:04 | prefer to think about that way rather than actually thinking | |
06:08 | about some rule , The next type of permutations we're | |
06:11 | going to consider are ones that involve repeats . And | |
06:14 | I'll give you an example of this . They asked | |
06:17 | to write the word puppy down and then I want | |
06:19 | to ask you how many different ways can we arrange | |
06:23 | these letters ? Now ? This is not just a | |
06:25 | simple matter of just arranging five different letters because you're | |
06:28 | going to notice that a couple of letters are actually | |
06:31 | the same P and P and P . We have | |
06:34 | three different piece . So we could swap these two | |
06:36 | piece here and we would end up with the same | |
06:38 | combination . We can also swap these piece here and | |
06:41 | end up the same combination . Would still say puppy | |
06:43 | or these two would still say our puppy . So | |
06:46 | how many different ways can we arrange these letters taking | |
06:50 | into account the repeats . So it's a fairly simple | |
06:54 | way of doing this . But we start out with | |
06:55 | this just having a look at how many letters in | |
06:58 | total there are . So there's five letters in total | |
07:00 | . So if we were just to consider this where | |
07:02 | they were different , all the letters were different . | |
07:04 | We would have five factorial different ways of arranging these | |
07:08 | five times four times three times two times one , | |
07:12 | Which is 120 different ways of arranging these . But | |
07:17 | considering this letter P here , we have This letter | |
07:21 | P Occurring three times . Okay . And this letter | |
07:25 | P could be arranged how many different times where you | |
07:27 | might then even trying to arrange these , but you | |
07:29 | might even think they can be arranged three factorial ways | |
07:33 | . So , when we're trying to figure out how | |
07:34 | many different ways the letters puppy can be arranged . | |
07:36 | We start with five factorial and we divided by three | |
07:40 | factorial . Ok , So we'll start with a number | |
07:43 | of different letters altogether , in the number of repeats | |
07:45 | . And how many ways they could be arranged ? | |
07:47 | And we divide it out . So three factorial is | |
07:51 | equal to 63 times two times one . What ? | |
07:54 | We end up with 120 divided by six . We | |
07:58 | have 20 different arrangement . So I hope you get | |
08:03 | that idea . Okay , all you need to do | |
08:04 | with that is you divide out the repeats factorial list | |
08:08 | . So say for instance , I now consider a | |
08:10 | different word . I'm going to consider the word mammal | |
08:14 | and I'm gonna get you possibly if you want to | |
08:16 | try and actually work and how many different ways we | |
08:18 | can arrange these letters . Uh Now first off , | |
08:22 | I'm going to start answering this right now . You | |
08:23 | can pause it and give it a go . But | |
08:25 | we have six factorial different ways that we could arrange | |
08:29 | these letters that we don't consider repeats . Six factorial | |
08:32 | is six times five times four times three times two | |
08:36 | times one , which is 720 . We have two | |
08:40 | different types of repeats . Here we have the ems | |
08:43 | the ems , we have three of these and we're | |
08:46 | eyes , we have two of these . So we're | |
08:48 | gonna divide by three factorial . Two factorial . Ok | |
08:55 | , so three factorial three times two times one . | |
08:59 | I'm not gonna bother right the times one because we | |
09:01 | all know that's not going to change the result . | |
09:03 | And this one here is two times one . So | |
09:05 | we're going to times up to as well . So | |
09:07 | three times two is six times two is 12 . | |
09:12 | So how many different ways can we arrange these ? | |
09:14 | 720 divided by 12 . We have 60 different ways | |
09:20 | . So hopefully you're getting that idea . Okay , | |
09:23 | all you need to do is you need to work | |
09:24 | out the repeats , the new factorial is them and | |
09:26 | divide them through . It's a nice way of thinking | |
09:29 | about it . I kind of make sense when you | |
09:30 | think about it as well . So the last type | |
09:33 | of question that you're going to get with these is | |
09:36 | where we are going to consider permutations that you have | |
09:40 | when you have a circle . Okay , so how | |
09:42 | many different ways ? Imagine this sort of question . | |
09:45 | We have four different people , but we're trying to | |
09:47 | arrange them in a circle . How many different ways | |
09:50 | can we do this ? I'll tell you what , | |
09:51 | I'll draw this circle down here . And I'm going | |
09:52 | to explain the problem that we get with this and | |
09:56 | then it will lead to our solution . So imagine | |
09:58 | how four different people are going to call them , | |
10:00 | I B c D and we arrange them . But | |
10:06 | then you're going to notice that we can also arrange | |
10:08 | these people . Well , we could put a here | |
10:13 | be here see here D . Here or a here | |
10:17 | be here see here D . Here or a here | |
10:21 | be here . See here D here you notice that | |
10:25 | all we're really doing is we're just rotating . It's | |
10:27 | exactly the same . The arrangements the same . Now | |
10:31 | look if you were actually saying , hey , no | |
10:32 | way . So it's not , what you can do | |
10:34 | is you can just treat this as four factor of | |
10:36 | the exact position . These guys said matters treated as | |
10:40 | four factorial . It's like arranging them in a line | |
10:43 | . But if all of a sudden you say , | |
10:44 | hey , I actually don't mind because these people counterclockwise | |
10:48 | or clockwise are sitting relative to each other in the | |
10:50 | same position . You know , the rotation can be | |
10:55 | taken into consideration here . What we need to do | |
10:57 | is we just have a look together 1234 rotations . | |
11:02 | So what we actually do is we defined by these | |
11:05 | number of rotations . Okay , so four factorial divided | |
11:09 | by 4 to 4 factorial is four times three times | |
11:13 | two times one , divided by four . Well we're | |
11:17 | just going to counsel these out and what we're actually | |
11:19 | left with is four take away one factorial . In | |
11:23 | fact , the way that we work this out , | |
11:24 | the formula in a circle is n take away one | |
11:28 | factorial . That's the way you work out the number | |
11:31 | of permutations in a circle , which is going to | |
11:33 | be three times two times one , which is six | |
11:37 | . So what about you if I was to ask | |
11:38 | you , how many different ways could we arrange ? | |
11:43 | What about six people in a circle ? Okay , | |
11:47 | so six people in a circle ? Six people in | |
11:50 | a circle and you're just gonna go , okay , | |
11:52 | six take away one is five . Factorial is going | |
11:55 | to be five times four times three times two times | |
11:59 | one , which is going to be 120 . So | |
12:04 | there are different types of questions you get with these | |
12:06 | . They're fairly simple and they make really good sense | |
12:09 | when you think about them . Anyway . Thank you | |
12:11 | for watching . Hope you found this video informative . | |
12:14 | Uh , see you next time . Bye . |
