EXAMPLE 2
Paul wishes to call Virginia, but he has forgotten her unlisted telephone number. He knows that the exchange (the first three digits) is 555, and that the last
four digits are 1, 4, 7, and 9, but he cannot remember their order. What is the
maximum number of telephone calls that Paul may have to make in order to
dial the correct number?
Solution The telephone nunaber is 555- . Since the last four digits will be an arrangement
of 1, 4, 7, and 9, this is a permutation of four numbers, taken four at a time.
4P4 = 4! = 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 24 possible orders
Answer The maximum number of calls that Paul may have to make is 24.

EXAMPLE 4
How many three-letter "words" (arrangements of letters) can be formed from
the letters L, 0, G, 1, C if each letter is used only once in a word?
Solution Forming three-letter arrangements from a set of five letters is a permutation
of five, taken three at a time. Thus:
5 P3 =

A lottery ticket contains a four-digit number. How many possible four-digit
numbers are there when:
a.a digit may appear only once in the number?
b.a digit may appear more than once in the number?
Solution a. If a digit appears only once in a four-digit number, this is a permutation of
10 digits, taken four at a time. Thus:
1aiD4 = 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 = 5,040
b. If a digit may appear more than once, we can choose any of 10 digits for the
first position, then any of 10 digits for the second position, and so forth. By
the counting principle:
10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 10,000
