Work Step by Step

Use the formula of permutation: $_{n}$P$_{r}$=$\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$. Plug in 6 for N and 2 for R: $_{n}$P$_{r}$=$\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}$ $_{6}$P$_{2}$=$\frac{6!}{(6-2)!}$ -simplify- $_{6}$P$_{2}$=$\frac{6!}{4!}$ -write using factorial- $_{6}$P$_{2}$=$\frac{6*5*4*3*2*1}{4*3*2*1}$ -simplify- $_{6}$P$_{2}$=30
