You can put this solution on YOUR website!
P(8,8) = 8!/0! = 40,320
\n" ); document.write( "You would use permutations because your arrangement does matter.
\n" ); document.write( "Also, look at this:
\n" ); document.write( "How many books can be first? .... answer: 8
\n" ); document.write( "How many books can be second? .... answer: 7

\n" ); document.write( "How many books can be fourth? .... answer: 5
\n" ); document.write( "How many books can be fifth? .... answer: 4
\n" ); document.write( "How many books can be sixth? .... answer: 3
\n" ); document.write( "How many books can be seventh? .... answer: 2
\n" ); document.write( "How many books can be eigth? .... answer: 1
\n" ); document.write( "Find the product of the whole row .... 8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 40,320
\n" ); document.write( "
