Tips and Ticks Combinations and Permutations


Tips and Ticks Combinations and Permutations

Permutation and combination related questions are common in PSC and Bank exams.

Before going to Combinations and Permutations, first lean about factorial.

If n is a positive integer then, factorial of n is denoted as n!.


5! = ( 1 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 5 ) = 120

4! = (1 x 2 x 3 x 4 ) = 24


Permutations are for lists of items, whose order matters and combinations are for group of items where order doesn’t matter. in other words,

  • When the order of items doesn\\\'t matter, it is called as Combination.
  • When the order of items does matter it is called as Permutation.


The number of permutations of n objects taken r at a time is determined by using this formula:

P(n,r)=n!/(n−r)!

Permutation: Listing your 3 favourite football team in order, from list of 10 teams. P(10,3) = 720.


The number of combinations of n objects taken r at a time is determined by using this formula:

C(n,r)=n!/((n−r)!r!)

Combination: Picking a team of 3 people from a football coaching group of 10. C(10,3) = 10!(3!(10−3)!) = 120.

Divisibility Rule

What is the divisibility by 2 Rule?.
Even numbers are multiples of 2. A number is even if ends in 0,2,4,6, or 8.
What is the divisibility by 3 rule?.
A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3.
372, for instance, is divisible by 3 since sum of its digits (3+7+2) is 12. And 12 is divisible by 3.
What is the divisibility by 4 rule?.
A number is divisible by 4 if the number\'s  last two digits are divisible by 4.
9,312, for instance, is divisible by 4 since its last 2 digits are 12. And 12 is divisible by 4.
What is the divisibility by 5 rule?.
A number is divisible by 5 if its last digit is a 0 or 5.
What is the divisibility by 6 rule?.
Since 6 is a multiple of 2 and 3, the rules for divisibility by 6 are a combination of the rule for 2 and the rule for   3.
Divisibility by 8 Rule.
A number passes the test for 8 if the las...

Faster Percentage Calculation

The quickest way to calculate percentages is to multiply numbers first and handle two decimal places later.

For example, 20% of 70 is 20 x 70 = 1400, so the answer is 14. .

70% of 20 is also 14.

To calculate the percentage of 72 or 29, then round up and down to the nearest multiple (70 and 30 respectively) to get a quick approx result.
