Please provide an easy explanation yaar...........i'm a beginner
use permutation when there is selection+arrangement
use combination when there is only selection
7 ppl can be distributed in 11 places in 11p7 ways.it matters if people change their seats
a team of 11 ppl can be selected from 15 in15c11 ways .it doesnt matter if you change order
now is it that an easier explanation
