Solve the following

Question:

If 12Pr = 1320, then r =__________.

Solution:

Given ${ }^{12} P_{r}=1320$

i. e $\frac{12 !}{(12-r) !}=1320$

$\Rightarrow(12-r) !=\frac{12 !}{1320}$

$\Rightarrow(12-r) !=\frac{12 \times 11 \times 10 \times 9 !}{12 \times 11 \times 10}$

$\Rightarrow(12-r) !=9 !$

$\Rightarrow 12-r=9$

$\Rightarrow r=12-9$

i. e $r=3$
