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 .
