Question 251518: 5(3^P2)

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
There is a formula for permutations.
It is P%28n%2Cr%29=+%28n%21%29%2F%28n-r%29%21,
so:
3!/(3-2)! = 6.
5(6)=30
The answer=30; however, I am confused if you mean 5(3P2), NOT 5(3 to the power P2). I don't think that is possible; I don't know...
