\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"3\" choices for each of \"10\" questions:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "here you have \"3\" objects (the \"3\" answer options, \"a\", \"b\", and \"c\")\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You are going to chose a group of \"10\" , and the order matters, repetition is allowed (you can answer \"\"c\"\" on all of the questions if you want to).\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "This is a simple \"permutation\". Use the formula:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"n%5Er\" where \"n\" is the number of objects (the number of answer choices)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "and \"r\" is the number of objects you will choose (\"10\", one answer for each question)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To solve:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so there will be \"3%5E10+=+59049\" ways to answer the test\r
