Clarification Note

Sir Why are

we Studying
This Chapter?

Student Aman Sir

Over of difference Between Permutation & Combination

Students Usually get Confused Later on That When To apply Permutation and When to apply
Combination When question Does Not Clearly Use the Word Like Selection and Arrangement
Let’s Remove this Confusion with the Help of One Example
Example: How many different Words Can be formed from the letters of the word “COMPUTER”?
Sol: COMPUTER

Problems Based on Words

Logic-1 Logic-2 Logic-3 Logic-4

When Similar When we Want Some When we Want When there is

(Identical) item Particular Items to Some Particular Restriction in
Occurs Multiple Come Together Items to Never Come Some Particular
Together Places
Times

E.g. E.g. E.g.

Arrangement of Word Arrangement of Word “M O B I L E” So that Vowel Arrangement of Word
“A M A N” “S U N D A Y”
Come Together Never Come Together
So that Word Start
with S but Does not
End with N

Logic-5
When there are Many Alphabets (Items)
but the question Demands to Select &
Arrange Few Only

Problems Based on Number

Logic-6 Logic-7

With/Without Restriction 2 Place Restriction

Example: Given Digits 2,3,4,0,5,7,8 5. How many numbers greater than 23,000
1. How many 4 digit no can be formed? can be formed with 1, 2…5?

2. How many 4 digit no can be formed

greater than 5000 can be formed?

3. How many numbers can be formed

between 10 & 1000?

4. How many numbers greater than 2000 Conclusion

can be formed using digits 0,1,2,4,5?

When we want particular When we want particular

person/things to always occur person/things to Never always occur

Example Example
In how many ways a team of 4 person can be In how many ways a team of 4 person can be
formed out of 10 person so that one particular formed out of 10 person so that one particular
person ( ) Always occur in a team? person ( ) Never Always occur in a team?

Selection Arrangement Selection Arrangement

Example Example

Logic-11 Logic-12

Selection of One or More Than One Selection of Things (No condition of One)

There are 4 different Mobile Phones in There are 4 different Mobile Phones in
How Many ways I Can Select one or more How Many ways I Can Select the one
than one Mobile Phones? Mobile Phones?

Problems Based on Distribution & Formation of Groups

Logic-13 Logic-14

Distribution of n things among persons Formation of Groups

Equal Groups Unequal Groups

Problems on Alternate & Non-Alternate

Logic-15 Logic-16

Non-Alternate Alternate

Arrangement of 2 kinds of things (say Boy & Arrangement of 2 kinds of things (say Boy
Girl) In such a way that question Demand any & Girl) In such a way that question
One Particular Kind (Say Boys Never come Demand Both the Kinds (No two boys &
together) to never come together girls) to never come together

Example Example
In how many ways 6 boys and 5 girls can be In how many ways 6 boys and 5 girls can
arranged in a row so that no two girls are be arranged in a row so that no two boys
together? and no two girls are together?

Example
In how many ways 5 boys and 5 girls
can be arranged in a row so that they
occur alternatively?
