Question 1.
Find x if $$\frac{1}{6 !}+\frac{1}{7 !}=\frac{x}{8 !}$$
Solution:
Given that $$\frac{1}{6 !}+\frac{1}{7 !}=\frac{x}{8 !}$$
$$\frac{1}{6 !}+\frac{1}{7 \cdot 6 !}=\frac{x}{8 \cdot 7 \cdot 6 !}$$
Cancelling all 6! we get
$$\frac{1}{1}+\frac{1}{7}=\frac{x}{8 \times 7}$$
$$\frac{7+1}{7}=\frac{x}{8 \times 7}$$
$$\frac{8}{7}=\frac{x}{8 \times 7}$$
x = $$\frac{8}{7}$$ × 7 × 8 = 64

Question 2.
Evaluate $$\frac{n !}{r !(n-r) !}$$ when n = 5 and r = 2.
Solution:
$$\frac{n !}{r !(n-r) !}=\frac{5 !}{2 !(5-2) !}=\frac{5 !}{2 ! \times 3 !}=\frac{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{2 \times 1 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}=10$$

Question 3.
If (n + 2)! = 60[(n – 1)!], find n.
Solution:
Given that (n + 2)! = 60(n – 1)!
(n + 2) (n + 1) n (n – 1)! = 60(n – 1)!
Cancelling (n – 1)! we get,
(n + 2)(n + 1)n = 60
(n + 2)(n + 1)n = 5 × 4 × 3
Both sides we consecutive product of integers
∴ n = 3

Question 4.
How many five digits telephone numbers can be constructed using the digits 0 to 9 If each number starts with 67 with no digit appears more than once?
Solution:
Given that each number starts at 67, we need a five-digit number. So we have to fill only one’s place, 10’s place, and 100th place. From 0 to 9 there are 10 digits. In these digits, 6 and 7 should not be used as a repetition of digits is not allowed. Except for these two digits, we have 8 digits. Therefore one’s place can be filled by any of the 8 digits in 8 different ways. Now there are 7 digits are left.

Therefore 10’s place can be filled by any of the 7 digits in 7 different ways. Similarly, 100th place can be filled in 6 different ways. By multiplication principle, the number of telephone numbers constructed is 8 × 7 × 6 = 336.

Question 5.
How many numbers lesser than 1000 can be formed using the digits 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 if no digit is repeated?
Solution:
The required numbers are lesser than 1000.
They are one digit, two-digit or three-digit numbers.
There are five numbers to be used without repetition.
One digit number: One-digit numbers are 5.
Two-digit number: 10th place can be filled by anyone of the digits by 5 ways and 1’s place can be 4 filled by any of the remaining four digits in 4 ways.
∴ Two-digit number are 5 × 4 = 20.
Three-digit number: 100th place can be filled by any of the 5 digits, 10th place can be filled by 4 digits and one’s place can be filled by 3 digits.
∴ Three digit numbers are = 5 × 4 × 3 = 60
∴ Total numbers = 5 + 20 + 60 = 85.
