Essay

Provide an appropriate response.
-Consider the following formulas: nPr=n ! (nr)!{ }_{n} \mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{r}}=\frac{\mathrm{n} \text { ! }}{(n-r) !} and nCr=n!(nr)!r!{ }_{n} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}}=\frac{n !}{(n-r) ! r !} .
Given the same values for n\mathrm{n} and r\mathrm{r} in each formula, which is the smaller value, P\mathrm{P} or C\mathrm{C} ?
How does this relate to the concept of counting the number of outcomes based on whether or not order is a criterion?
