To calculate the number of possible combinations of r non-repeating elements from a set of n types of elements the formula is. Suppose we are given ten numbers from 1 to 10 as 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and 10. So the above equation expresses the number of ways for picking r unique unordered outcomes from n possibilities. To find the number of ways to select 3 of the 4 paintings disregarding the order of the paintings divide the number of permutations by the number of ways to order 3 paintings.
