How many ways can you arrange 3 toppings out of 10 toppings on a pizza?

Sagot :

Answer:

120 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we would be using the law of combination.

In combination, we say that

nCr = n! / (n - r)! r!, where both r and n are integers.

Now, referring to question, we are asked how many ways we can arrange 3 toppings out of 10. This means we're looking for 10C3. Applying the earlier laid out formula, we have

10C3 = 10! / (10 - 3)! 3!

10C3 = 10! / 7! 3!

10C3 = 3628800 / 5040 * 6

10C3 = 3628800 / 30240

10C3 = 120

Therefore, the toppings can be arranged in 120 ways.
