A combination lock like the one shown has three dials. Each of the dials has numbers ranging from 0 to 4. How many different combinations are possible with the lock?

Sagot :

If combination requires 3 numbers ranging from 0 to 4 then number of combinations is 10.

Given A combination lock contains three numbers from 0 to 4.

Combinations refers to a technique that determines the number of possible arrangements in  a collection of items where the order of the selection does not matter.

Total numbers available to be selected are 5 from 0 to 4.

In this 0 is also included because it is also a number.

Numbers to be filled in the combination lock =3

So to calculate the combinations we need to use nCr formula in which n=5 and r=3.

Combinations=5C3

=5!/3!*(5-3)!

=5!/3!*2!

=5*4*3!/3!*2!

3! will be cancelled from numerator and denominator

=5*4/2

=10

Hence the number of possible combinations are 10.
